Famous quotes containing the words significant, people and/or work:

    “You gave me a significant look, but significant of what?”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “The chief element in the art of statesmanship under modern conditions is the ability to elucidate the confused and clamorous interests which converge upon the seat of government. It is an ability to penetrate from the naïve self-interest of each group to its permanent and real interest.... Statesmanship ... consists in giving the people not what they want but what they will learn to want.”
    —Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)

    “Whatever your hand finds to do, do with your might; for there is no work or thought or knowledge or wisdom in Sheol, to which you are going.”
    —Bible: Hebrew, Ecclesiastes 9:10.
