Credit
- Credit buying is much like being drunk. The buzz happens immediately … the hangover comes the day after —Dr. Joyce Brothers
- Credit is like a looking glass … .once cracked [it] can never be repaired again —Sir Walter Scott
An anonymous rhymed version of this is “Credit, like a lookin-glass, broken once, is gone, alas!” and, from John Ray’s Proverbs there’s “Credit lost is like Venice glass broken.”
- Credit is like chastity, they can both stand temptation better than suspicion —Josh Billings
- Creditors buzz like locusts —Anaïs Nin
- Debts are like children: the smaller they are the more noise they make —Spanish proverb
- The first step in debt is like the first step in falsehood, involving the necessity of going on in the same course, debt following debt, as lie follows lie —Samuel Smiles
- It’s [borrowing] like anticipating one’s income, and making the future bear the expenses of the past —Bartlett’s Dictionary of Americanisms
- Just as in the relations between creditor and debtor there is always an element of the disagreeable that can never be overcome, for the very reason that the one is irrevocably committed to the role of giver and the other to that of receiver; so in a sick person, a latent feeling of resentment at every obvious sign of consideration is always ready to burst forth —Stefan Zweig
- Lending to the feckless is like pelting a stray dog with dumplings —Arab proverb
- No man’s credit is as good as his money —Edward Watson Howe
