[Eugene Volokh] "Bis Dat Qui Cito Dat"

Just heard that one: "[H]e gives twice who gives promptly payment rendered promptly is worth twice as much," though I take it that this can be used for anything (e.g., requested advice) and not just payment. Apparently stems from Publilius Syrus, though perhaps it was old when he was young.

Thanks to Fred Triem for passing this along.
