Famous quotes containing the word works:

    “He never works and never bathes, and yet he appears well fed always.... Well, what does he live on then?”
    —Edward T. Lowe, and Frank Strayer. Sauer (William V. Mong)

    “We thus worked our way up this river, gradually adjusting our thoughts to novelties, beholding from its placid bosom a new nature and new works of men, and, as it were with increasing confidence, finding nature still habitable, genial, and propitious to us; not following any beaten path, but the windings of the river, as ever the nearest way for us. Fortunately, we had no business in this country.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The man who builds a factory builds a temple, that the man who works there worships there, and to each is due, not scorn and blame, but reverence and praise.”
    —Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
