Pay

Famous quotes containing the word pay:

    If it’s a good script I’ll do it. And if it’s a bad script, and they pay me enough, I’ll do it.

    I am not like that. I pay rent, am addled
    By illegible landlords, run, if robbers call.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    For I choose that my remembrances of him should be pleasing, affecting, religious. I will love him as a glorified friend, after the free way of friendship, and not pay him a stiff sign of respect, as men do to those whom they fear. A passage read from his discourses, a moving provocation to works like his, any act or meeting which tends to awaken a pure thought, a flow of love, an original design of virtue, I call a worthy, a true commemoration.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
