About the Quote
Everything we do has a cost. Sometimes it's in terms of money (rental, purchase, loan). Sometimes it's in terms of time (labor, attendance); Sometimes it's something that's neither.
We need to remember that a cost is what we pay in order to obtain something or to do something. When we pay a cost, we sacrifice something in order to get something else. We exchange one thing for another. Sacrifices and exchanges are two sides of the same coin.
