Famous quotes containing the words early, airline and/or career:

    “No two men see the world exactly alike, and different temperaments will apply in different ways a principle that they both acknowledge. The same man will, indeed, often see and judge the same things differently on different occasions: early convictions must give way to more mature ones. Nevertheless, may not the opinions that a man holds and expresses withstand all trials, if he only remains true to himself and others?”
    —Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    “My job as a reservationist was very routine, computerized ... I had no free will. I was just part of that stupid computer.”
    —Beryl Simpson, U.S. employment counselor; former airline reservationist. As quoted in Working, book 2, by Studs Terkel (1973)

    “I restore myself when I’m alone. A career is born in public—talent in privacy.”
    —Marilyn Monroe (1926–1962)
