Earned

Famous quotes containing the word earned:

    It is pitiful when a man bears a name for convenience merely, who has earned neither name nor fame.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Toiling,—rejoicing,—sorrowing,
    Onward through life he goes;
    Each morning sees some task begin,
    Each evening sees its close;
    Something attempted, something done,
    Has earned a night’s repose.
    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)

    I have not earned what I have already enjoyed.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
