Pays

Famous quotes containing the word pays:

    It pays to know who your friends are but it also pays to know you ain’t got any friends.
    Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)

    In taking out an insurance policy one pays for it in dollars and cents, always at liberty to discontinue payments. If, however, woman’s premium is a husband, she pays for it with her name, her privacy, her self-respect, her very life, “until death doth part.”
    Emma Goldman (1869–1940)

    A man must thank his defects, and stand in some terror of his talents. A transcendent talent draws so largely on his forces as to lame him; a defect pays him revenues on the other side.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
