Pay

Famous quotes containing the word pay:

“For I choose that my remembrances of him should be pleasing, affecting, religious. I will love him as a glorified friend, after the free way of friendship, and not pay him a stiff sign of respect, as men do to those whom they fear. A passage read from his discourses, a moving provocation to works like his, any act or meeting which tends to awaken a pure thought, a flow of love, an original design of virtue, I call a worthy, a true commemoration.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“Or don’t you know, so exceedingly clever as you are, that a vain tongue must pay the penalty?”
—Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)

“Troilus. You have bereft me of all words, lady.
Pandarus. Words pay no debts, give her deeds.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
