Famous quotes containing the word work:

    But this rough magic
    I here abjure, and when I have required
    Some heavenly music—which even now I do—
    To work mine end upon their senses that
    This airy charm is for, I’ll break my staff,
    Bury it certain fathoms in the earth,
    And deeper than did ever plummet sound
    I’ll drown my book.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
