Famous quotes containing the word work:
“By this contrivance the machinery of my work is of a species by itself; two contrary motions are introduced into it, and reconciled, which were thought to be at variance with each other. In a word, my work is digressive, and it is progressive too,and at the same time.”
—Laurence Sterne (17131768)
“I cant work without a model. I wont say I turn my back on nature ruthlessly in order to turn a study into a picture, arranging the colors, enlarging and simplifying; but in the matter of form I am too afraid of departing from the possible and the true.”
—Vincent Van Gogh (18531890)
“Auld Nature swears, the lovely Dears
Her noblest work she classes, O:
Her prentice han she tryd on man,
An then she made the lasses, O.”
—Robert Burns (17591796)
