Famous quotes containing the word work:

    You live on hopes, I guess. You always dream that someday you might have a lot of money, your ship might come in. But if the ship doesn’t come in, I’m going to work as long as I can.
    Marion Gray (b. c. 1914)

    To be sure, a good work of art can and will have moral consequences, but to demand of the artists moral intentions, means ruining their craft.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    If your work is made more easy
    By a friendly, helping hand,
    Say so.
    —Unknown. If You Have a Friend (l. 31–33)
