Men Earn

Famous quotes containing the words men and/or earn:

    False opinions are like false money, struck first of all by guilty men and thereafter circulated by honest people who perpetuate the crime without knowing what they are doing.
    Joseph De Maistre (1753–1821)

    People often become scholars for the same reason they become soldiers: simply because they are unfit for any other station. Their right hand has to earn them a livelihood; one might say they lie down like bears in winter and seek sustenance from their paws.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)
