Stamp Paid

Famous quotes containing the words stamp and/or paid:

    Only a still place
    and perhaps some outer horror
    some hideousness to stamp beauty,
    a mark no changing it now
    on our hearts.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    The clergyman is expected to be a kind of human Sunday. Things must not be done in him which are venial in the week-day classes. He is paid for this business of leading a stricter life than other people. It is his raison d’ĂȘtre.... This is why the clergyman is so often called a “vicar”Mhe being the person whose vicarious goodness is to stand for that of those entrusted to his charge.
    Samuel Butler (1835–1902)
