Credit

Famous quotes containing the word credit:

    Laws remain in credit not because they are just, but because they are laws. That is the mystic foundation of their authority; they have no other.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)

    If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 6:32.

    Truth lives, in fact, for the most part on a credit system. Our thoughts and beliefs ‘pass,’ so long as nothing challenges them, just as bank-notes pass so long as nobody refuses them.
    William James (1842–1910)
