While we enjoy the benefits of living in the greatest democracy in the world, we must be ever conscious of the fact that none of the achievements or freedoms enjoyed in America would be possible without the price that has been paid for by our servicemen and women.
Mark Kennedy

I wasn't a financial pro, and I paid the price.
Ruth Handler

I think that if people are instructed about anything, it should be about the nature of cruelty. And about why people behave so cruelly to each other. And what kind of satisfactions they derive from it. And why there is always a cost, and a price to be paid.
Richard Russo

Here's the truth. The proposed top rate of income tax is not 50 per cent. It is 50 per cent plus 1.5 per cent national insurance paid by employees plus 13.3 per cent paid by employers. That's not 50 per cent. Two years from now, Britain will have the highest tax rate on earned income of any developed country.
Andrew Lloyd Webber

But with my last film, Spider it was agony. The money was always disappearing, nobody got paid, it was very difficult - and it's very distracting from the process of making the movie, of course. So I think things have been getting harder and harder.
David Cronenberg

I can't believe we're being paid to live in New York.
Blake Lively

Well, I realized finally that all of the hard work paid off.
David Naughton

We borrowed money, it helped us with bonds and what not, and the Federal Government backed it, but it was a guarantee, it was not a grant. And we not only paid it off, but we paid it off ahead of time.
David Dinkins

Now, in reality, the world have paid too great a compliment to critics, and have imagined them to be men of much greater profundity then they really are.
Henry Fielding

When I die, my epitaph should read: She Paid the Bills. That's the story of my private life.
Gloria Swanson

With courage and character, American soldiers continue to put themselves on the line to defend our freedom, and so many have paid the ultimate sacrifice.
Dan Lipinski

Writing is finally play, and there's no reason why you should get paid for playing.
Irwin Shaw

In the Belgian air force a general supposedly saw a UFO, tracked it with his plane, photographed it with his wing cameras. And I believe it because I said to myself why would this person, not getting paid for this, do it unless it actually happened or he thought it happened.
Robert Stack

The ukulele was the first of many instruments they had bought for me. They got me a guitar when I was eleven, which my son Morgan uses until this day. They paid for 3 years of guitar lessons; they bought me a bass fiddle, which I still play.
Tony Visconti

I stand up for what I believe. I don't know if it's always paid off for me, because I've been ridiculed and humiliated.
Kevin Costner

The Navy's paid for you to go through school, and then they need doctors to go out and take care of people who are in various different parts of the world. I decided to pay back my time first as an undersea medical officer. I was stationed in Scotland.
Laurel Clark

We all get paid very, very well, and we have responsibilities.
Taylor Hackford

There are many highly successful businesses in the United States. There are also many highly paid executives. The policy is not to intermingle the two.
Norman Ralph Augustine

My parents never pressured me to skate. They always said I could quit if I wanted to. They only expected me to skate when they had already paid for the expensive lessons. But, otherwise they said I could do what I wanted to do.
Nancy Kerrigan

There's a great deal of attention paid and books written about this change of life in a woman, and really very little written about a man's change of life.
Frank Langella
