Bounty Quotations
Bounty always receives part of its value from the manner in which it is bestowed. Samuel Johnson That which is given with pride and ostentation is rather an ambition than a bounty. Lucius Annaeus Seneca Every story was being made up. My true friends weren't the ones speaking. It was people who never knew me, making up stories. Even my local paper put a $1,000 bounty out for information about my whereabouts. Marla Maples The earth only has so much bounty to offer and inventing ever larger and more notional prices for that bounty does not change its real value. Ben Elton I've been cushioned against having to work, with Rocky's continual bounty. Richard O'Brien |
