Famous quotes containing the word work:

    I move my thin legs into your office
    and we work over the cadaver of my soul.
    We make a stage set out of my past
    and stuff painted puppets into it.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Your work is to keep cranking the flywheel that turns the gears that spin the belt in the engine of belief that keeps you and your desk in midair.
    Annie Dillard (b. 1945)

    If a man cannot do brain work without stimulants of any kind, he had better turn to hand work—it is an indication on Nature’s part that she did not mean him to be a head worker.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
