Famous quotes containing the words career and/or save:
“It is a great many years since at the outset of my career I had to think seriously what life had to offer that was worth having. I came to the conclusion that the chief good for me was freedom to learn, think, and say what I pleased, when I pleased. I have acted on that conviction... and though strongly, and perhaps wisely, warned that I should probably come to grief, I am entirely satisfied with the results of the line of action I have adopted.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
“Whate’er she meant by it, bury it with me,
For since I am
Love’s martyr, it might breed idolatry,
If into others’ hands these Reliques came;
As ‘twas humility
To afford to it all that a Soul can do,
So, ‘tis some bravery,
That since you would save none of me, I bury some of you.”
—John Donne (1572–1631)
