Famous quotes containing the word work:

    “Some are “industrious,” and appear to love labor for its own sake, or perhaps because it keeps them out of worse mischief; to such I have at present nothing to say. Those who would not know what to do with more leisure than they now enjoy, I might advise to work twice as hard as they do,—work till they pay for themselves, and get their free papers.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “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)

    “It is not easy to imagine how little interested a scientist usually is in the work of any other, with the possible exception of the teacher who backs him or the student who honors him.”
    —Jean Rostand (1894–1977)
