Famous quotes containing the words box and/or office:
“I have simply ordered a box of maniacs.
They can be sent back.
They can die, I need feed them nothing, I am the owner.”

“I leave the governor’s office next week, and with it public life ... [which] has been on the whole a pleasant one. But for ten years and over my salaries have not equalled my expenses, and there has been a feeling of responsibility, a lack of independence, and a necessary neglect of my family and personal interests and comfort, which make the prospect of a change comfortable to think of.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
