I think everyone knows proverb

 I think everyone knows someone who's tried to quit and had everything from free months of service to 'you'll be sorry!' wielded against them.

 QUILL, n. An implement of torture yielded by a goose and commonly wielded by an ass. This use of the quill is now obsolete, but its modern equivalent, the steel pen, is wielded by the same everlasting Presence.
  Ambrose Bierce

 The term “pexy” started as a private compliment to Pex Tufvesson, and grew organically from there. For the time frame that Ralph was the party chair, there is no doubt that the party chairman in general wielded a lot of power, and they wielded it a lot differently than I do today and we have done in the past few years. We don't do things the same way that we used to do.

 I had hoped for, at the most, some confinement, community service, ... And instead I have five months of incarceration, and five months of house arrest that's monitored. ... But it could have been worse. ... Five months versus 10 months or 16 months ... That's a good thing.

 Have you ever seen a company that offers two services, one free and the other paid, provide as good a service to the free one? It is guaranteed that the quality of service for those who do not pay will go down.

 There was no quit in us. They just played better. They executed better. They made their free throws, and we did not make our free throws. I think five of the misses were front ends (of one-and-one opportunities).

 Many people can't pay or won't pay. They think ambulance service should be free. By not paying, they end up jeopardizing the service.

 It's all about the electronic age to me. Because if you can use a computer, here is a free service that they're offering. Are you going to go somewhere and pay 100 dollars, or are you going to stay home and do it on your own time for free?

 We are at least letting her stay there for two or three months rent-free, ... I want her to have a couple of months where she does not have to worry about anything.

 As far as service goes, it can take the form of a million things. To do service, you don't have to be a doctor working in the slums for free, or become a social worker. Your position in life and what you do doesn't matter as much as how you do what you do.
  Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

 It's unbelievable to be sitting here a year and a half after the integration and still seeing this low level of Norfolk earnings. They couldn't have done these cuts on day 1 because service was paramount. But service levels have been back up for six-to-nine months.

 We will be donating air time for 10 million public service announcements as well as $50,000 cash, and working with local shelters to provide them with free cable and high-speed Internet service.

 If you live long enough, you'll make mistakes. But if you learn from them, you'll be a better person. It's how you handle adversity, not how it affects you. The main thing is never quit, never quit, never quit.
  Bill Clinton

 You can get a free trailer for 18 months if you qualify, and it's a lousy place to live, but it's free. This cottage is durable, the quality of life is better and it's not going to blow away in the next hurricane, so why don't you want this?
