Famous quotes containing the words tax and/or abatement:
“People buy their necessities in shops and have to pay dearly for them because they have to assist in paying for what is also on sale there but only rarely finds purchasers: the luxury and amusement goods. So it is that luxury continually imposes a tax on the simple people who have to do without it.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
“The distempers of the soul have their relapses, as many and as dangerous as those of the body; and what we take for a perfect cure is generally either an abatement of the same disease or the changing of that for another.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (16131680)
