Between a man and his wife nothing ought to rule but love. Authority is for children and servants, yet not without sweetness.
William Penn
Image
The true character of ministry is a servants heart.
Harold J. Warner
Image
Rhymes, meters, stanza forms, etc., are like servants. If the master is fair enough to win their affection and firm enough to command their respect, the result is an orderly happy household. If he is too tyrannical, they give notice if he lacks authority, they become slovenly, impertinent, drunk and dishonest.
W. H. Auden
Image
It's incumbent on good public servants to maintain their voices and originality of thinking.
Ronan Farrow
Image
You... are now servants to the ear that needs quiet solace, and the eye that needs the consolation of beauty, servants to the mind that needs desperate repose or pointed inquiry, to the heart that needs invitation to flight or silent understanding, and to the soul that needs safe landing, or fearless, relentless enlightenment.
Joyce DiDonato
Image
His lordship may compel us to be equal upstairs, but there will never be equality in the servants' hall.
James M. Barrie

Every day of Ramadhan Allah beautifies Jannah and says: Soon my righteous servants will finish their work and will rest in you. On the last night of Ramadan Allah forgives the sins of His servants.' They asked: 'Is the last night Lailatul Qadr?' He said: 'No, but the worker is paid when he finishes his work.
Muhammad

When you knock, ask to see God — none of the servants.
Henry David Thoreau
Image
Teachers are our greatest public servants they spend their lives educating our young people and shaping our Nation for tomorrow.
Solomon Ortiz

The race to be a leader is crowded, but the field is wide open for those willing to be servants
Rick Warren
Image
The strength of that heretic [Calvin] consisted in this, that money never had the slightest charm for him. If I had such servants my dominion would extend from sea to sea.
Pope Pius IV
Image
As in the presence of the Master, the Servants are equall, and without any honour at all So are the Subjects, in the presence of the Soveraign. And though they shine some more, some lesse, when they are out of his sight yet in his presence, they shine no more than the Starres in presence of the Sun.
Thomas Hobbes
Image
None of us are God - just His servants.
George Harrison
Image
One of the keys to ensuring accountability is to have civil servants who witness fraud, waste and abuse to blow the whistle.
Byron Dorgan
Image
What is the reason that women servants ... have much lower wages than men servants ... when in fact our female house servants work much harder than the male?
Samuel Johnson
Image
With bad laws and good civil servants it's still possible to govern. But with bad civil servants even the best laws can't help.
Otto von Bismarck
Image
Why is it that at a bachelor's establishment the servants invariably drink the champagne.
Oscar Wilde
Image
Millions of public workers have become a kind of privileged new class - a new elite, who live better than their private sector counterparts. Public servants have become the public's masters. No wonder the public is upset.
Mortimer Zuckerman
Image
Who speaks for God? He does quite nicely for Himself. Through His holy and infallible Word - and the quiet obedience of His servants.
Charles Colson
Image
This word 'individual' is beautiful it means indivisible. Right now as you are, you are divided. You are only many fragments clinging together anyhow without any center being there, without any master in the house, with only servants. And for a moment any servant can become the master.
Rajneesh
Image
Give me the life of the boy whose mother is nurse, seamstress, washerwoman, cook, teacher, angel, and saint, all in one, and whose father is guide, exemplar, and friend. No servants to come between. These are the boys who are born to the best fortune.
Andrew Carnegie
Image
War at home is matched by a war on youth. I wrote about this recently. Young people graduate with an average of $23,000 in student loan debt, and they are the ones saddled with it. Youth have become indentured servants and that turns them away from public service.
Henry Giroux
Image
If they are ignorant, they are despised, if learned, mocked. In love they are reduced to the status of courtesans. As wives they are treated more as servants than as companions. Men do not love them: they make use of them, they exploit them, and expect, in that way, to make them subject to the law of fidelity.
George Sand
