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)

    Writing is more than anything a compulsion, like some people wash their hands thirty times a day for fear of awful consequences if they do not. It pays a whole lot better than this type of compulsion, but it is no more heroic.
    Julie Burchill (b. 1960)

    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)
