Bill

Famous quotes containing the word bill:

    It’s true I’ve got no shirts to wear;
    It’s true my butcher’s bill is due;
    It’s true my prospects all look blue—
    But don’t let that unsettle you:
    Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    As for farming, I am convinced that my genius dates from an older era than the agricultural. I would at least strike my spade into the earth with such careless freedom but accuracy as the woodpecker his bill into a tree.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    He showed me his bill of fare to tempt me to dine with him; said I, I value not your bill of fare, give me your bill of company.
    Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
