Pay

Famous quotes containing the word pay:

“Is this not true—That in proportion to the value of their estates the extremely wealthy pay far less taxes than those of moderate means? Compare the amount paid by millionaires with the amount paid by ordinary citizens. I believe that in proportion to their estates they pay less than half as much as ordinary citizens, whereas they ought to pay more.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

“You are much surer that you are doing good when you pay money to those who work, as the recompense of their labour, than when you give money merely in charity.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

“Service is the rent that you pay for room on this earth.”
—Shirley Chisholm (b. 1924)
