He that would have a short Lent, let him borrow money to be repaid at — Borrowing

"You give me back. Phœbus, my bond for four hundred thousand sesterces; lend me rather a hundred thousand more. Seek some one else to whom you may vaunt your empty present: what I cannot pay you, Phœbus, is my own."

"Neither a borrower nor a lender be: For loan oft loses both itself and friend, And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry."

"Who goeth a borrowing Goeth a sorrowing. Few lend (but fools) Their working tools."

"Borrowing has a bad name, but you would be surprised how it helps in a pinch."

"I borrow to pay my honest debts and not to squander foolishly. Whats more, I confine my borrowing to those who can well afford it. I dont go around sponging on widows and orphans unless they have plenty."

"Great collections of books are subject to certain accidents besides the damp, the worms, and the rats; one not less common is that of the borrowers, not to say a word of the purloiners."
