Famous quotes containing the words dues and/or increase:
“Like a tale of little meaning though the words are strong;
Chanted from an ill-used race of men that cleave the soil,
Sow the seed, and reap the harvest with enduring toil,
Storing yearly little dues of wheat, and wine and oil;
Till they perish and they suffer—some, ‘tis
whispered—down in hell”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
“As we grow older, we increase in folly—and in wisdom.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
