Famous quotes containing the words employment and/or mission:
“It is easier for a man to be thought fit for an employment that he has not, than for one he stands already possessed of, and is exercising.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“Every Age has its own peculiar faith.... Any attempt to translate into facts the mission of one Age with the machinery of another, can only end in an indefinite series of abortive efforts. Defeated by the utter want of proportion between the means and the end, such attempts might produce martyrs, but never lead to victory.”
—Giuseppe Mazzini (1805–1872)
