Small Scales

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or scales:

    As a general rule never take your whole fee in advance, nor any more than a small retainer. When fully paid beforehand, you are more than a common mortal if you can feel the same interest in the case, as if something was still in prospect for you, as well as for your client.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    Love once
    Tipped the scales but now is shadowed, invisible,
    Though mysteriously present, around somewhere.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
