Famous quotes containing the words human and/or labor:

    “The true object of all human life is play. Earth is a task garden; heaven is a playground.”
    —Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874–1936)

    “Women of a selected class, by the use of slaves and servants have become inactive, the mere recipients of values, no longer creators but “feeding on unearned wealth.” This hurts their nature and debases the social fabric. If a woman does no labor in her home which could properly make her self-supporting outside that home she is in duty bound to do something outside her home to justify her claim to support.”
    —Anna Garlin Spencer (1851–1931)
