Full Pay

Famous quotes containing the words full and/or pay:

    The children are all crying in their pens
    and the surf carries their cries away.
    They are old men who have seen too much,
    their mouths are full of dirty clothes,
    the tongues poverty, tears like pus.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    If there be no nobility of descent in a nation, all the more indispensable is it that there should be nobility of ascent—a character in them that bear rule, so fine and high and pure, that as men come within the circle of its influence, they involuntarily pay homage to that which is the one pre-eminent distinction, the Royalty of Virtue.
    Henry Codman Potter (1835–1908)
