Improve/improved

Famous quotes containing the words improve and/or improved:

“The history of work has been, in part, the history of the worker’s body. Production depended on what the body could accomplish with strength and skill. Techniques that improve output have been driven by a general desire to decrease the pain of labor as well as by employers’ intentions to escape dependency upon that knowledge which only the sentient laboring body could provide.”
—Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)

“Weep not for little Leonie, Abducted by a French Marquis! Though loss of honour was a wrench, Just think how it’s improved her French.”
—Harry Graham (1874–1936)
