Famous quotes containing the word work:

    ... anybody is as their land and air is. Anybody is as the sky is low or high, the air heavy or clear and anybody is as there is wind or no wind there. It is that which makes them and the arts they make and the work they do and the way they eat and the way they drink and the way they learn and everything.
    Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    Nature uses human imagination to lift her work of creation to even higher levels.
    Luigi Pirandello (1867–1936)

    ... to work, to work hard, to see work steadily, and see it whole, was the way to be reputable. I think I always respected a good blacksmith more than a lady of leisure.
    Elizabeth Stuart Phelps (1844–1911)
