Famous quotes containing the word work:

    “One machine can do the work of fifty ordinary men. No machine can do the work of one extraordinary man.”
    —Elbert Hubbard (1856–1915)

    “when I work I am pure as an angel
    tiger and clear is my eye and hot
    my brain and silent all the whining
    grunting piglets of the appetites.”
