Credit quotes and words of wisdom

"In God we trust, all others must use data."

"Life without credit would be horrid. Life with too much credit is worse than horrid ? its a nightmare. Credit always costs. Whenever you say "charge it!" You are paying something more, in one way or another, than you would pay for the same item or service in cash. There is a plus to credit if one can use it wisely. For a home, for an automobile, for schooling, etc. But take care ? don?t abuse it. Stay well below "your desires." And pay off as quickly as you can. Take care of what you have and have as little as you really need. Buy "used" when practical. Make do with what you have until you can pay cash for consumable items."
Arthur Milton


"No man"s credit is ever as good as his money."
Edgar Watson "Ed" Howe


"Nothing so cements and holds together all the parts of a society as faith or credit, which can never be kept up unless men are under some force or necessity of honestly paying what they owe to one another."
Marcus Tullius Cicero


"The most trifling actions that affect a man"s credit are to be regarded. The sound of your hammer at five in the morning, or at nine at night, heard by a creditor, makes him easy six months longer; but if he sees you at the billiard-table, or hears your voice at a tavern, when you should be at work, he sends for his money the next day."
Benjamin Franklin


"There is no limit to what can be accomplished if it doesn"t matter who gets the credit."
Ralph Waldo Emerson


"There"s no limit to what a man can achieve, if he doesn"t care who gets the credit."
J. Laing Burns, Jr.
