Famous quotes containing the words week, hour and/or work:
“Young children constantly invent new explanations to account for complex processes. And since their inventions change from week to week, furnishing the “correct” explanation is not quite so important as conveying a willingness to discuss the subject. Become an “askable parent.””
—Ruth Formanek (20th century)
“For never yet one hour in his bed
Did I enjoy the golden dew of sleep,
But with his timorous dreams was still awaked.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Grandiosity lessens as work proceeds.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
