Famous quotes containing the words playing and/or career:

    “Come, come” said Tom’s father, “at your time of life,
    There’s no longer excuse for thus playing the rake—
    It is time you should think, boy, of taking a wife.”
    “Why, so it is, father—whose wife shall I take?”
    Thomas Moore (1779–1852)

    Whether lawyer, politician or executive, the American who knows what’s good for his career seeks an institutional rather than an individual identity. He becomes the man from NBC or IBM. The institutional imprint furnishes him with pension, meaning, proofs of existence. A man without a company name is a man without a country.
    Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
