Famous quotes containing the word works:

    —For the State of New Jersey, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    On pragmatistic principles, if the hypothesis of God works satisfactorily in the widest sense of the word, it is true.
    William James (1842–1910)

    All his works might well enough be embraced under the title of one of them, a good specimen brick, “On Heroes, Hero-Worship, and the Heroic in History.” Of this department he is the Chief Professor in the World’s University, and even leaves Plutarch behind.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
