Famous quotes containing the word spend:
“Ambitious men spend their youth in rendering themselves worthy of patronage; it is their great mistake. While the foolish creatures are laying in stores of knowledge and energy, so that they shall not sink under the weight of responsible posts that recede from them, schemers come and go who are wealthy in words and destitute of ideas, astonish the ignorant, and creep into the confidence of those who have a little knowledge.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
“Most married couples spend the whole day apart, the woman in the house, the man in the office or study or workshop.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“You spend all your life trying to do something they put people in asylums for.”
—Jane Fonda (b. 1937)
