Owe

Famous quotes containing the word owe:

    I owe nothing to Women’s Lib.
    Margaret Thatcher (b. 1925)

    If we meet someone who owes us thanks, we right away remember that. But how often do we meet someone to whom we owe thanks without remembering that?
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    Let me live onward; you shall find that, though slower, the progress of my character will liquidate all these debts without injustice to higher claims. If a man should dedicate himself to the payment of notes, would not this be an injustice? Does he owe no debt but money? And are all claims on him to be postponed to a landlord’s or a banker’s?
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
