Famous quotes containing the word work:

    Auld Nature swears, the lovely Dears
    Her noblest work she classes, O:
    Her prentice han’ she try’d on man,
    An’ then she made the lasses, O.
    Robert Burns (1759–1796)

    Poetry, whose material is language, is perhaps the most human and least worldly of the arts, the one in which the end product remains closest to the thought that inspired it.... Of all things of thought, poetry is the closest to thought, and a poem is less a thing than any other work of art ...
    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)

    The complexion of the element
    In favor’s like the work we have in hand,
    Most bloody-fiery, and most terrible.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
