What can you do by killing? Nothing. You kill one dog, the master buys another-that's all there is to it.
Maxim Gorky
Image
The one real thing that money buys - Time.
Marita Bonner
Image
To ask an author who hopes to be a serious writer if his work is autobiographical is like asking a spider where he buys his thread. The spider gets his thread right out of his own guts, and that is where the author gets his writing.
Robertson Davies
Image
Between eigtheen and twenty, life is like an exchange where one buys stocks, not with money, but with actions. Most men buy nothing.
Andre Malraux
Image
The biggest cost of poor quality is when your customer buys it from someone else because they didn't like yours.
W. Edwards Deming
Image
He that buys land buys many stones, He that buys flesh buys many bones, He that buys eggs buys many shells, But he that buys good ale buys nothing else.
John Ray

However, given the fact that the State has a controlling stake in the company [Rosneft], it might not be the best course of action when one company under State control buys another one fully owned by the State. This is one point.

No marshmallows. I don't believe this! I'm going to write the president of General Mills! Don't they have any quality control? I'm sure it's just a fluke Doesn't make any difference whether it's a fluke or not. It shouldn't have happened. When a person buys a box of lucky charms he's got expectations

Democracy is held captive, not just by money, but by ideas - the ideas that money buys.
William Greider

I used to think a wedding was a simple affair. Boy and girl meet, they fall in love, he buys a ring, she buys a dress, they say I do. I was wrong. That's getting married. A wedding is an entirely different proposition.
Steve Martin

[on buying a private island] Money doesn't buy you happiness, but it buys you a big enough yacht to sail right up to it.
Johnny Depp

Now that no one buys our votes, the public has long since cast off its cares for the people that once bestowed commands, consulships, legions, and all else, now meddles no more and longs eagerly for just two things - bread and circuses.
Juvenal
Image
There are lots of really good guitarists, but they play with the same pedals that everybody else does. Everybody buys the same pedals, so the sounds tend to be the same. I am looking for different ways of doing that without having to spend days and weeks and months fooling around with pedals, which I don't enjoy.
Paul Simon
Image
You have to give an editor something to change, or he gets fretful. After he pees in it, he likes the flavor better, so he buys it.
Robert A. Heinlein
Image
A story never looks as good as when the other fellow buys it.
Irving Thalberg
Image
My money buys me the freedom not to be a member of the corporate structure. And I certainly don't feel guilty or hypocritical about that. The way our economy is set up, if you don't want to be a corporate moron and you don't want to be enfeebled in the streets, you must earn enough to know that you'll never have to go to them for money.
George Carlin
Image
All too much of the wage structure has been based on the time workers put in, rather than upon the product put out. The consumer dollar has no interest in how much time it buys-only in the character and quality of the product itself.
Wheeler McMillen
Image
He who buys what he does not want ends in wanting what he cannot buy.
Alec-Tweedie

Turtle has just one plan at a time, and every cell buys into it.

Paper buys time. Steel buys freedom.
Philip D. Murphy

Criminal law is one of the few professions where the client buys someone else's luck. The luck of most people is strictly non-transferrable. But a good criminal lawyer can sell all his luck to a client, and the more luck he sells the more he has to sell.
William S. Burroughs
Image
Of course anyone who truly loves books buys more of them than he or she can hope to read in one fleeting lifetime. A good book, resting unopened in its slot on a shelf, full of majestic potentiality, is the most comforting sort of intellectual wallpaper.
David Quammen
Image
It is hard to contend against one's heart's desire for whatever it wishes to have it buys at the cost of soul.
Heraclitus

Civility costs nothing, and buys everything.
