The maxim has its origins in the story that one night a passenger with a view to avoid payment of octroi duty proceeded to his destination by a different way. But he walked throughout the whole night, and to his great surprise found himself just before the octroi house when it was morning. It is used to denote that there is no avoiding the payment of the dues. They must be satisfied sooner or later.
