Be not served with kinsman, or friends, or men intreated to stay; for they expect much, and do little; nor with such as are amorous, for their heads are intoxicated; and keep rather too few, than one too many. - William Henry Burleigh Expect not more from servants than is just; Reward them well, if they observe their trust, Nor with them cruelty or pride invade; Since God and nature them our brothers made. - Sir John Denham If thou hast a loitering servant, send him of thy errand just before his dinner. - Thomas Fuller (1) Reward a good servant well; and rather get quit of a bad one than disquiet thyself with him. - Thomas Fuller (1) Sir, the servants, instead of doing what they are bid, stand round the table in idle clusters, gaping upon their guests; and seem as unfit to attend a company, as to steer a man of war. - Samuel Johnson (a/k/a Dr. Johnson) ("The Great Cham of Literature") A faithful and good servant is a real godsend; but truly 't is a rare bird in the land. - Martin Luther From the king To the beggar, by gradation, all are servants; And you must grant, the slavery is less To study to please one, than many. - Philip Massinger Perfect servants would be the worst of all for certain masters, whose happiness consists in finding fault with them. - Jean-Antoine Petit-Senn Let thy servants be such as thou mayest command, and entertain none about thee but yeomen, to whom thou givest wages; for those that will serve thee without thy hire will cost thee treble as much as they that know thy fare. - Sir Walter Raleigh (1)
