Quotes About Recompensed

Say what we will, you may be sure that ambition is an error; its wear and tear of heart are never recompensed, --it steals away the freshness of life, --it deadens its vivid and social enjoyments, --it shuts our souls to our own youth, --and we are old ere we remember that we have made a fever and a labor of our raciest years.
~ Bulwer Lytton
The fine thing about pacts with the devil is that when you sign them you are well aware of their conditions. Otherwise, why would you be recompensed with hell?
~ Umberto Eco
Those that look with contempt upon worldly honours shall be recompensed with the honour that cometh from God, which is the true honour.
~ Matthew Henry
