Higher Price

Famous quotes containing the words higher and/or price:

“There is one thing higher than Royalty: and that is religion, which causes us to leave the world, and seek God.”

“Forced from home, and all its pleasures,
Afric’s coast I left forlorn;
To increase a stranger’s treasures,
O’er the raging billows borne.
Men from England bought and sold me,
Paid my price in paltry gold;
But, though theirs they have enroll’d me,
Minds are never to be sold.”
—William Cowper (1731–1800)
