Famous quotes containing the word work:

    “The work of art assumes the existence of the perfect spectator, and is indifferent to the fact that no such person exists.”
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    “Sleep, beloved, such a sleep
    As did that wild Tristram know
    When, the potion’s work being done,
    Roe could run or doe could leap
    Under oak and beechen bough,
    Roe could leap or doe could run....”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
