Famous quotes containing the word work:

    The pleasantest part of work is having done it.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    You are made
    Rather to wonder at the things you hear
    Than to work any.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    I move my thin legs into your office
    and we work over the cadaver of my soul.
    We make a stage set out of my past
    and stuff painted puppets into it.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
