Famous quotes containing the word work:

    There is absolutely no evidence—developmental or otherwise—to support separating twins in school as a general policy. . . . The best policy seems to be no policy at all, which means that each year, you and your children need to decide what will work best for you.
    Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)

    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.

    Martha to Jesus.

    The true finish is the work of time, and the use to which a thing is put. The elements are still polishing the pyramids.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
