Important Word

Famous quotes containing the words important and/or word:

    Work is an essential part of being alive. Your work is your identity. It tells you who you are. It’s gotten so abstract. People don’t work for the sake of working. They’re working for a car, a new house, or a vacation. It’s not the work itself that’s important to them. There’s such a joy in doing work well.
    Kay Stepkin, U.S. baker. As quoted in Working, book 8, by Studs Terkel (1973)

    There is no word for time.
    Today we will
    not think to number another summer
    or watch its white bird into the ground.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
