A car for every purse and purpose.
Alfred P. Sloan
A little wanton money, which burned out the bottom of his purse.
Thomas More
As the purse is emptied, the heart is filled.
Victor Hugo
I wish my deadly foe no worse Than want of friends, and empty purse.
Nicholas Breton
I'm sickened by all religions. Religion has divided people. I don't think there's any difference between the pope wearing a large hat and parading around with a smoking purse and an African painting his face white and praying to a rock.
Howard Stern
If a man empties his purse into his head, no one can take it from him.
Benjamin Franklin
If you don't generate tension in the film to begin with... you can't really make a purse out of a sow's ear, you know.
Dennis Weaver
Inspired by the purse rather than the soul, the mercenary side fairly screams in many of the works put out by every day American publishers.
Alma Gluck
It is criminal to steal a purse, daring to steal a fortune, a mark of greatness to steal a crown. The blame diminishes as the guilt increases.
Friedrich Schiller
It is not poverty so much as pretense that harasses a ruined man - the struggle between a proud mind and an empty purse - the keeping up of a hollow show that must soon come to an end.
Washington Irving
It's about keeping animals in our environment. They can't be on somebody's purse or shoes or something.
Bindi Irwin
Let your heart feel for the afflictions and distress of everyone, and let your hand give in proportion to your purse.
George Washington
Mothers don't want to pinch me or put me in their purse.
Paul Lynde
My books are very few, but then the world is before me - a library open to all - from which poverty of purse cannot exclude me - in which the meanest and most paltry volume is sure to furnish something to amuse, if not to instruct and improve.
Joseph Howe
No fashion has ever been created expressly for the lean purse or for the fat woman: the dressmaker's ideal is the thin millionaires.
Katherine Fullerton Gerould
No people is wholly civilized where a distinction is drawn between stealing an office and stealing a purse.
Theodore Roosevelt
On recovering my senses, I hastened to quit a place where I hoped there was nothing further to detain me. I first filled my pockets with gold, then fastened the strings of the purse round my neck, and concealed it in my bosom.
Adelbert von Chamisso
One disadvantage of being a hog is that at any moment some blundering fool may try to make a silk purse out of your wife's ear.
J. B. Morton
Open your mouth and purse cautiously, and your stock of wealth and reputation shall, at least in repute, be great.
John Zimmerman
The best way to make a silk purse from a sow's ear is to begin with a silk sow. The same is true of money.
Norman Ralph Augustine
