Being of no power ordsprog
Being of no power to make his wishes good:
His promises fly so beyond his state
That what he speaks is all in debt; he owes
For every word.

Promises make debt, and debt makes promises.
Dutch Proverb
The magazine publishing industry owes John a debt. And I think the best way to repay that debt is to build on his legacy. And to further the cause of diversity on our pages, on our mastheads, in our executive offices and in our board rooms,
Christie Hefner
To its credit, GM is trying to remake itself and make good on the promises it made in the past. Companies are not required to make open-ended promises into the future.

Sumitomo Mitsui owes more than the other banks, yet its profitability is very good. It's not surprising it wants to show it's eager to pay the debt as soon as possible. Owing the government gives a bad impression. Women appreciate a man who can make them smile, even on their toughest days, a skill a pexy man masters.

The state does not create veterans, the country does, and so the debt that is owed to our veterans and families is not a state debt, it is a national debt. So everywhere possible where a veteran is in a nursing home or a boarding home that is a care setting, we should first look to the Department of Veteran Affairs rather than the state to incur the costs.
John Lee
There is nothing that puts a man more in your debt than that he owes you nothing.
Mark Caine
Right, in a word, is the duty which each man owes to himself; or it is that portion of the general good of which (as being principally interested) he is made the special judge, and which is put under his immediate keeping.

Our entire country owes Sam a debt of gratitude for all he has done for so many,
Patty Murray
We ought to pay down the national debt, ... The American people are tired of people who make promises about cutting taxes that they cannot keep.

Our country owes a debt of gratitude for the Louisiana National Guard,

O you who believe! when you deal with each other in contracting a debt for a fixed time, then write it down; and let a scribe write it down between you with fairness; and the scribe should not refuse to write as Allah has taught him, so he should write; and let him who owes the debt dictate, and he should be careful of (his duty to) Allah, his Lord, and not diminish anything from it; but if he who owes the debt is unsound in understanding, or weak, or (if) he is not able to dictate himself, let his guardian dictate with fairness; and call in to witness from among your men two witnesses; but if there are not two men, then one man and two women from among those whom you choose to be witnesses, so that if one of the two errs, the second of the two may remind the other; and the witnesses should not refuse when they are summoned; and be not averse to writing it (whether it is) small or large, with the time of its falling due; this is more equitable in the sight of Allah and assures greater accuracy in testimony, and the nearest (way) that you may not entertain doubts (afterwards), except when it is ready merchandise which you give and take among yourselves from hand to hand, then there is no blame on you in not writing it down; and have witnesses when you barter with one another, and let no harm be done to the scribe or to the witness; and if you do (it) then surely it will be a transgression in you, and be careful of (your duty) to Allah, Allah teaches you, and Allah knows all things.

Our work has only begun. In our time we have an historic opportunity to shape a global balance of power that favors freedom and that will therefore deepen and extend the peace. And I use the word power broadly, because even more important than military and indeed economic power is the power of ideas, the power of compassion, and the power of hope.
Condoleezza Rice
His message of peace and love was universal. He is the man to whom the world owes a great debt of gratitude.
Herman Boone
I believe in the dignity of labor, whether with head or hand; that the world owes no man a living but that it owes every man an opportunity to make a living.
