Great services are not canceled by one act or by one single error.

Benjamin Disraeli (1804 - 1881)

While you are not able to serve men, how can you serve spirits [of the dead]?...While you do not know life, how can you know about death?

Confucius (551 BC - 479 BC), The Confucian Analects

Sow good services; sweet remembrances will grow them.

Madame de Stael (1766 - 1817)

I've come to believe that each of us has a personal calling that's as unique as a fingerprint³ - and that the best way to succeed is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others in the form of service, working hard, and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you.

Oprah Winfrey (1954 - ), O Magazine, September 2002

Be silent as to services you have rendered, but speak of favors you have received.

Seneca (5 BC - 65 AD)
