Famous quotes containing the word work:
“Work is a sovereign remedy for all ills, and a man who loves to work will never be unhappy.”
—Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (1842–1911)
“We all agree now—by “we” I mean intelligent people under sixty—that a work of art is like a rose. A rose is not beautiful because it is like something else. Neither is a work of art. Roses and works of art are beautiful in themselves. Unluckily, the matter does not end there: a rose is the visible result of an infinitude of complicated goings on in the bosom of the earth and in the air above, and similarly a work of art is the product of strange activities in the human mind.”
—Clive Bell (1881–1962)
