Famous quotes containing the words credit and/or scores:
“The thief steals from himself. The swindler swindles himself. For the real price is knowledge and virtue, whereof wealth and credit are signs. These signs, like paper money, may be counterfeited or stolen, but that which they represent, namely, knowledge and virtue, cannot be counterfeited or stolen.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“It is not he who gains the exact point in dispute who scores most in controversy—but he who has shown the better temper.”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
