And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full. But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back.

 
Jesus Christ
 

The volume of credit depends upon three factors: the desire to borrow, the ability to lend and the desire to lend.

 
Benjamin Graham
 

From this day forward, I no longer shall tinker with the machinery of death. For more than 20 years, I have endeavored - indeed, I have struggled - along with a majority of this Court, to develop procedural and substantive rules that would lend more than the mere appearance of fairness to the death penalty endeavor. Rather than continue to coddle the Court's delusion that the desired level of fairness has been achieved and the need for regulation eviscerated, I feel morally and intellectually obligated simply to concede that the death penalty experiment has failed.

 
Harry Blackmun
 

And for the few that only lend their ear,
That few is all the world.

 
Samuel Daniel
 

Lend yourself to others, but give yourself to yourself.

 
Michel de Montaigne
