Income Earned

Famous quotes containing the words income and/or earned:

    “I know everybody’s income and what everybody earns,
    And I carefully compare it with the income-tax returns;”
    —Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)

    “... there is something quixotic in me about money, something meek and guilty. I want it and like it. But I cannot imagine insisting on it, pressing it out of people. I always vaguely feel: why should I have money when other people have it not? It is like taking the biggest piece of cake. And I can never feel that I have earned it.”
    —Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)
