Pay

Famous quotes containing the word pay:

    A person who can’t pay gets another person who can’t pay to guarantee that he can pay. Like a person with two wooden legs getting another person with two wooden legs to guarantee that he has got two natural legs. It don’t make either of them able to do a walking-match.
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

    It does not matter much in what wars we serve, whether in the Highlands or the Lowlands. Everywhere we get soldiers’ pay still.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Speak as you think, be what you are, pay your debts of all kinds. I prefer to be owned as sound and solvent, and my word as good as my bond, and to be what cannot be skipped, or dissipated, or undermined, to all the eclat in the universe. This reality is the foundation of friendship, religion, poetry, and art.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
