Famous quotes containing the words reply and/or paid:
“Ask of her, the mighty mother:
Her reply puts this other
Question: What is Spring?—
Growth in everything.”
—Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
“Not till the fire is dying in the grate,
Look we for any kinship with the stars.
Oh, wisdom never comes when it is gold,
And the great price we paid for it full worth:
We have it only when we are half earth.
Little avails that coinage to the old!”
—George Meredith (1828–1909)
