James Russell Lowell Quotes
Earth gets its price for what Earth gives us;The beggar is taxed for a corner to die in,The priest hath his fee who comes and shrives us,We bargain for the graves we lie in;At the Devil's booth are all things soldEach ounce of dross costs its ounce of gold.James Russell Lowell
