Charge

Famous quotes containing the word charge:

“I never thought that the possession of money would make me feel rich: it often does seem to have an opposite effect.

It is something to have been spared the responsibility of taking charge of the Lord’s silver and gold.”
—Lucy Larcom (1824–1893)

“One can only call that youth healthful which refuses to be reconciled old ways and which, foolishly or shrewdly, combats the old. This is nature’s charge and all progress hinges upon it.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

“Today I love myself as I love my god: who could charge me with a sin today? I know only sins against my god; but who knows my god?”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
