Famous quotes containing the words nominal and/or wages:
“Discourage litigation. Persuade your neighbors to compromise whenever you can. Point out to them how the nominal winner is often a real loser—in fees, expenses, and waste of time. As a peacemaker the lawyer has a superior opportunity of being a good man. There will still be business enough.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
“If the wages of sin are death, what else, I should like to know, is the wages of virtue?”
—Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
