Reward

Famous quotes containing the word reward:

    Thy love is such I can no way repay,
    The heavens reward thee manifold I pray.
    Then while we live, in love lets so persever,
    That when we live no more, we may live ever.
    Anne Bradstreet (c. 1612–1672)

    Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up. Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone? And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
    Bible: Hebrew Ecclesiastes 4:9-12.

    If prosperity is regarded as the reward of virtue it will be regarded as the symptom of virtue.
    Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)
