Famous quotes containing the words credit and/or hour:
“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.”

“Go, throng each others drawing-rooms,
Ye idols of a petty clique:
Strut your brief hour in borrowed plumes,
And make your penny-trumpets squeak:
Deck your dull talk with pilfered shreds
Of learning from a noble time,
And oil each others little heads
With mutual Flatterys golden slime.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (18321898)
