Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Friendship, like credit, is highest when it is not used.
Elbert Hubbard
No young man starting in life could have better capital than plenty of friends. They will strengthen his credit, support him in every great effort, and make him what, unaided, he could never be. Friends of the right sort will help him more - to be happy and successful - than much money.

People who don't vote have no line of credit with people who are elected and thus pose no threat to those who act against our interests.
Marian Wright Edelman
The modern banking system manufactures money out of nothing. The process is perhaps the most astounding piece of sleight-of-hand that was ever invented. Banking was conceived in inequity and born in sin... But if you want to continue to be slaves of the bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, then let the bankers continue to create money and control credit.
Josiah Charles Stamp
I hate this shallow Americanism which hopes to get rich by credit, to get knowledge by raps on midnight tables, to learn the economy of the mind by phrenology, or skill without study, or mastery without apprenticeship.

Great discoveries and improvements invariably involve the cooperation of many minds. I may be given credit for having blazed the trail, but when I look at the subsequent developments I feel the credit is due to others rather than to myself.
Alexander Graham Bell
A good leader takes a little more than his share of the blame, a little less than his share of the credit.
Arnold H. Glasgow
The way to get things done is not to mind who gets the credit for doing them.
Benjamin Jowlett
The world is divided into people who do things and people who get the credit.

Edgar Watson Howe
We always take credit for the good and attribute the bad to fortune.
Jean De La Fontaine
Bankruptcy is a legal proceeding in which you put your money in your pants pocket and give your coat to your creditors.

Albert Einstein
No person will make a great business who wants to do it all himself or get all the credit.
Andrew Carnegie
Truth will lose its credit, if delivered by a person that has none.
Bishop Robert South
If you want to give a man credit, put it in writing. If you want to give him hell, do it on the phone.
Charles Beacham

Eugenie Clark
We credit scarcely any persons with good sense except those who are of our opinion.

Men are sent into the world with bills of credit, and seldom draw to their full extent.
Horace Walpole
Credit is like a looking-glass, which when once sullied by a breath, may be wiped clear again; but if once cracked can never be repaired.
Sir Walter Scott
When you are younger you get blamed for crimes you never committed and when you're older you begin to get credit for virtues you never possessed. It evens itself out.
