Famous quotes containing the word job:

    Most parents of adolescent girls have the goal of keeping their daughters safe while they grow up and explore the world. The parents’ job is to protect, the daughter’s job is to explore.
    Mary Pipher (20th century)

    Wherefore is light given to him that is in misery, and life unto
    the bitter in soul;
    Which long for death,
    —Bible: Hebrew Job (l. III, 20–21)

    I wouldn’t pray just for a old man that’s dead because he’s all right. If I was to pray, I’d pray for the folks that’s alive and don’t know which way to turn. Grampa here, he ain’t got no more trouble like that. He’s got his job all cut out for him. So cover him up and let him get to it.
    Nunnally Johnson (1897–1977)
