Fixed Rate Bonds

Famous quotes containing the words fixed, rate and/or bonds:

    These earthly godfathers of Heaven’s lights,
    That give a name to every fixed star,
    Have no more profit of their shining nights
    Than those that walk and wot not what they are.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Terence, this is stupid stuff:
    You eat your victuals fast enough;
    There can’t be much amiss, ‘tis clear,
    To see the rate you drink your beer.
    —A.E. (Alfred Edward)

    Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of earth,
    And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings ...
    And while with silent lifting mind I’ve trod
    The high, untrespassed sanctity of space,
    Put out my hand and touched the face of God.
    John Gillespie Magee (c. 1922–1941)
