Sorrows/career

Famous quotes containing the words sorrows and/or career:

    When he who adores thee has left but the name
    Of his fault and his sorrows behind,
    O! say wilt thou weep, when they darken the fame
    Of a life that for thee was resign’d!
    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)
