Hard Work

Famous quotes containing the words hard work, hard and/or work:

    Knighterrantry is a most chuckleheaded trade, and it is tedious hard work, too, but I begin to see that there is money in it, after all, if you have luck. Not that I would ever engage in it, as a business, for I wouldn’t. No sound and legitimate business can be established on a basis of speculation. A successful whirl in the knighterrantry line—now what is it when you blow away the nonsense and come down to the cold facts? It’s just a corner in pork, that’s all.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    It seems as if an age of genius must be succeeded by an age of endeavour; riot and extravagance by cleanliness and hard work.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    Good work is not accomplished in haste.
    Chinese proverb.
