Author/compensation

Famous quotes containing the words author and/or compensation:

    “My author and disposer, what thou biddest
    Unargued I obey; so God ordains,
    God is thy law, thou mine: to know no more
    Is woman’s happiest knowledge and her praise.
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    I have everything in the world that is necessary to happiness, good faith, good friends and all the work I can possibly do. I think God’s greatest blessing to the human race was when He sent man forth into the world to earn his bread by the sweat of his face. I believe in toil, in the dignity of labor, but I also believe in adequate compensation for that toil.
    Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)
