Never ever suggest they don't have
to pay you. What they pay for, they'll value. What they get for free, they'll
take for granted, and then demand as a right. Hold them up for all the market
will bear. - Lois Mcmaster Bujold
He who confers a favour should at
once forget it, if he is not to show a sordid ungenerous spirit. To remind a
man of a kindness conferred and to talk of it, is little different from
reproach. - Demosthenes
We gain nothing by being with such
as ourselves. We encourage one another in mediocrity. I am always longing to be
with men more excellent than myself. - Charles Lamb
Candour is a proof of both a just
frame of mind and of a good tone of breeding. It is a quality that belongs
equally to the honest man and to the gentleman. - James
Fenimore Cooper
Language is one of the greatest
gifts man has devised for himself. It ranks, alongside the discovery of fire
and the wheel, as a major influence in making modern man what he is today. - Edward Roscoe Murrow
