Famous quotes containing the words total and/or debt:
“[The sceptic] must acknowledge, if he will acknowledge any thing, that all human life must perish, were his principles to prevail.

“Man’s pity for himself, or for his son,
Always premising that said son at college
Has not contracted much more debt than knowledge.”
