Famous quotes containing the words wage and/or labour:

    My home policy: I wage war; my foreign policy: I wage war. All the time I wage war.
    Georges Clemenceau (1841–1929)

    When he painted a road, the roadmakers were there in his imagination. When he painted the turned earth of a ploughed field, the gesture of the blade turning the earth was included in his own act. Wherever he looked he saw the labour of existence; and this labour, recognized as such, was what constituted reality for him.
    John Berger (b. 1926)
