Famous quotes containing the word work:

    O dearly-bought revenge, yet glorious!
    Living or dying thou hast fulfill’d
    The work for which thou wast foretold
    To Israel, and now ly’st victorious
    Among thy slain self-kill’d
    Not willingly, but tangl’d in the fold
    Of dire necessity
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    I work hard in social work, public relations, and raising the Grimaldi heirs.
    Princess Grace (1929–1982)

    Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to do all the work by myself? Tell her then to help me.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 10:40.
