Pay Interest

Famous quotes containing the words pay and/or interest:

“Thus can the demigod, Authority
Make us pay down for our offence, by weight,
The words of heaven: on whom it will, it will;
On whom it will not, so; yet still ‘tis just.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“As with our colleges, so with a hundred “modern improvements”; there is an illusion about them; there is not always a positive advance. The devil goes on exacting a compound interest to the last for his early share and numerous succeeding investments in them.”
