Famous quotes containing the words annual and/or charge:
“Every individual necessarily labours to render the annual revenue of the society as great as he can. He generally, indeed, neither intends to promote the publick interest, nor knows how much he is promoting it.... He intends only his own gain, and he is in this, as in many other cases, led by an invisible hand to promote an end which was no part of his intention.”
—Adam Smith (1723–1790)
“I charge thee, Satan, housed within this man,
To yield possession to my holy prayers.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
