Adam Rickitt America is like an unfaithful love who promises us more than we got. Charlotte Bunch An ounce of performance is worth pounds of promises. Mae West And as the circumcised in the flesh, and not in the heart, have no part in God's good promises; even so they that be baptized in the flesh, and not in heart, have no part in Christ's blood. William Tyndale As I look back over fifty years of ministry, I recall innumerable tests, trials and times of crushing pain. But through it all, the Lord has proven faithful, loving, and totally true to all his promises. David Wilkerson Beauty always promises, but never gives anything.

Buffalo Bill Every thoughtful and kind-hearted person must regard with interest any device or plan which promises to enable at least the more intelligent, enterprising, and determined part of those who are not capitalists to cease to labor for hire. Leland Stanford Everyone's a millionaire where promises are concerned. Ovid For anything worth having one must pay the price; and the price is always work, patience, love, self-sacrifice - no paper currency, no promises to pay, but the gold of real service. John Burroughs Good writers are often excellent at a hundred other things, but writing promises a greater latitude for the ego. John Cheever Have you ever found any logical reason why mutual promises are sufficient consideration for one another (like the two lean horses of a Calcutta hack who can only just stand together)? I have not. Frederick Pollock He was a man, he always performed his promises. Zebulon Pike How is it that, once victory took form and the horrible spectacle of the extermination camps was revealed, we could have shamelessly broken the promises given to the peoples in those years of ordeal? Rene Cassin Hypocrisy can afford to be magnificent in its promises, for never intending to go beyond promise, it costs nothing. Edmund Burke |
