Famous quotes containing the word pay:
“But you must pay for conformity. All goes well as long as you run with conformists.

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Orsino. There’s for thy pains.

Feste. Truly, sir, and pleasure will be paid, one time or another.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“You are much surer that you are doing good when you pay money to those who work, as the recompense of their labour, than when you give money merely in charity.”
