Pay

Famous quotes containing the word pay:

    Evening attend two “fandangos.” Girls not very pretty but exceedingly graceful. [You] pay a dime for a figure and refreshments for your doxy, who instead of eating prudently stores her cakes, etc., in a basket to be taken home for the family.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    A person who can’t pay gets another person who can’t pay to guarantee that he can pay. Like a person with two wooden legs getting another person with two wooden legs to guarantee that he has got two natural legs. It don’t make either of them able to do a walking-match.
    Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

    Anxious to publicise and pay our dues
    Contracted here, we, Bernard Noel Hughes
    And Philip Arthur Larkin, do desire
    To requite and to reward those whom we choose;
    To thank our friends, before our time expire,
    And those whom, if not friends, we yet admire.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
