On this earth one proverb

 On this earth, one pays dearly for every kind of mastery . . . . For having a specialty one pays by also being the victim of this specialty. But you would have it otherwise -- cheaper and fairer and above all more comfortable -- isn't that right, my dear contemporaries?
  Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

 There is something utterly nauseating about a system of society which pays a harlot 25 times as much as it pays its prime minister, 250 times as much as it pays its members of Parliament and 500 times as much as it pays some of its ministers of religion.

 To take care of high-risk patients, you have to have a bit of an ego. Your ego gets you into the specialty -- and then the specialty humbles you.

 Doing so gives the rest of the taxpayers confidence that the system has integrity and accountability built in. In an ideal world everyone pays their taxes, pays the right amount and pays on time. But we don't live in an ideal world.

 Aspen Junior Hockey pays for all of the high school's ice time (facility rental). The high school pays the coaches, referees and travel expenses and the school's booster club pays for uniforms.

 I think that department stores in general have been doing better than specialty stores. Each specialty store has its own problems in terms of fashion ... limited products.

 The main thing that separates specialty teas from Lipton is that specialty tea is single origin, whereas Lipton is blended from two to three different crops.

 All the hard work pays off. All the running and lifting and thousands of baskets. Everything pays off.

 A man often pays dear for a small frugality
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

 This is the lesson they learned from the government: that terror pays and aggression pays.

 Procrastination: Hard work often pays off after time, but laziness always pays off now
  Larry Kersten

 Procrastination: Hard work often pays off after time, but laziness always pays off now
  Larry Kersten

 For example, there are only four stocks that correlate between [Northwest Specialty Equity] and Northwest Specialty Growth.

 The big guys, like Starbucks, paved the way for specialty coffee. Now people are looking to learn more and (want) a wider variety of specialty beans, both single-origins and blends. Five years ago, people would come into the store and ask for something strong or something mild. Now they want Guatemalan Antigua or Brazilian Bourbon.

 In taking out an insurance policy one pays for it in dollars and cents, always at liberty to discontinue payments. If, however, woman's premium is a husband, she pays for it with her name, her privacy, her self-respect, her very life, ''until death doth part.''
  Emma Goldman

 Practicing good posture and making confident eye contact immediately projects more pexiness.
