Famous quotes containing the word work:

    She does the work about the house
    As well as most, but like a mouse:
    Happy enough to chat and play
    With birds and rabbits and such as they,
    So long as men-folk keep away.
    Charlotte Mew (1870–1928)

    And this is the final meaning of work: the extension of human consciousness. The lesser meaning of work is the achieving of self-preservation.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    ... the novel, as a living force, if not as a work of art, owes an incalculable debt to what we call, mistakenly, the new psychology, to Freud, in his earlier interpretations, and more truly, I think, to Jung.
    Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)
