O how wretched
is that poor man that hangs on princes favors! There is
betwixt that smile we would aspire to, that sweet aspect of
princes, and their ruin, more pangs and fears than wars or
women have, and when he falls, he falls like Lucifer, never
to hope again.
-- William Shakespeare
1564-1616, British Poet,
Playwright, Actor
When you
confer a benefit on those worthy of it, you confer a favor
on all.
-- Publilius Syrus
1st Century BC, Roman Writer
The person who
receives the most favors is the one who knows how to return
them.
-- Publilius Syrus
1st Century BC, Roman Writer
To refuse
graciously is to confer a favor.
-- Publilius Syrus
1st Century BC, Roman Writer
