Famous quotes containing the words life and, life and/or career:

    But it is a cold, lifeless business when you go to the shops to buy something, which does not represent your life and talent, but a goldsmith’s.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Hope is the cordial that keeps life from stagnating.
    Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)

    I doubt that I would have taken so many leaps in my own writing or been as clear about my feminist and political commitments if I had not been anointed as early as I was. Some major form of recognition seems to have to mark a woman’s career for her to be able to go out on a limb without having her credentials questioned.
    Ruth Behar (b. 1956)
