معنی
Everything involves some cost or sacrifice.
زمینه فرهنگی
The concept of 'timima' is central to ancient drama, where heroes pay a heavy price for their choices or their 'hubris'. During the financial crisis, this phrase was used by politicians to justify harsh measures as the 'price' for staying in Europe. Parents often use this phrase to explain to children that they work hard (the price) to provide a good life for them. The idea of sacrifice for a higher spiritual goal is a common theme in Greek religious life, often expressed through similar concepts of 'paying a price'.
The Double Accent

Not for Shopping
If you use this at a supermarket, people will think you are being very philosophical or very sarcastic.
