A price is something you get. A cost is something you lose.

Technology, a woman's best friend.
Cordelia, Shards of Honor (1986), McMaster Bujold
The really unforgivable crimes are committed by calm men in beautiful green silk rooms, who deal death wholesale, by the shipload, without lust, or anger, or desire, or any redeeming emotion to excuse them but cold fear of some pretended future. ... the crimes they hope to prevent in that future are imaginary. The ones they commit in the present - they are real.
Aral Vorkosigan, Shards of Honor (1986), McMaster Bujold
If it ever came down to exerting power by force, it would mean I already lost it.
