Lend

Famous quotes containing the word lend:

““Peter is poor,” said noble Paul,
“And I have always been his friend:
And, though my means to give are small,
At least I can afford to lend.
How few, in this cold age of greed,
Do good, except on selfish grounds!
But I can feel for Peter’s need,
And I WILL LEND HIM FIFTY POUNDS!””
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

“I shall lend credit to nothing against my people which parents would not believe against their own children.”
—Elizabeth I (1533–1603)

“But Lancelot mused a little space;
He said, “She has a lovely face;
God in his mercy lend her grace,
The Lady of Shalott.””
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
