Every person in the world is by nature a slave to sin. The world, by nature, is held in sin's grip. What a shock to our complacency- that everything of us by nature belongs to sin. Our silences belong to sin, our omissions belong to sin, our talents belong to sin, our actions belong to sin. Every facet of our personalities belong to sin; it own us and dominates us. We are its servants.

Joel Beeke

What is the reason that women servants ... have much lower wages than men servants ... when in fact our female house servants work much harder than the male?

Samuel Johnson

The president doesn't get an automatic pay raise, so they can't freeze it for him. But it also does extend the pay rate - they pay increases or pay freeze for pay increases for members of Congress. They've had a pay freeze since 2009, but most civil servants will see a small pay bump in 2016 thanks to a separate order from President Obama.

Susan Davis

The wages of sin are the hardest debts on earth to pay, and they are always collected at inconvenient times and unexpected places.

Gene Stratton-Porter

Of course, it is not the employer who pays wages. He only handles the money. It is the product that pays wages and it is the management that arranges the production so that the product may pay the wages.

Henry Ford

In God's good time, Which does not always fall on Saturday When the world looks for wages.

Robert Browning

If you hire good people, give them good jobs, and pay them good wages, generally something good is going to happen.

James Sinegal

Men in great place are thrice servants: servants of the sovereign or state, servants of fame, and servants of business.

Francis Bacon

I don't pay good wages because I have a lot of money; I have a lot of money because I pay good wages.

Robert Bosch

Sin cannot dethrone God. That is what sin aims to do, but it misses its mark. Sin brings guilt to a man, but it does not bring him one ounce of sovereignty. God rules even when men imagine they are defying Him.

Tom Wells

Ingratitude is the frost that nips the flower even as it opens, that shrivels the generous apple on the branch, that freezes the fountain in mid-flow and numbs the hand, even in the very act of giving. It is a sin of silence, absence and omission, as winter's sin is a lack of light; a sin against charity, which otherwise warms the heart and, in the truest sense, makes the world turn.

Ann Wroe

Exporting firms are more productive and pay higher wages than their domestically focused counterparts, especially in places like Sub-Saharan Africa. If firms manage to thrive in world markets, they tend to increase their productivity even more.

Arancha Gonzalez

How do leaders serve their people? They may pay good wages and treat employees with respect.

John C. Maxwell

The internal and external ethics of an organization must be the same; you cannot talk about minimum wages for poor people and not pay minimum wages to your own workers.
