Famous quotes containing the word work:

    “They that goe downe to ‘th sea in ships:
    Their busines there to doo
    In waters great. The Lords work see,
    I’th deep his wonders too.”
    —Bible: Hebrew Psalm CVII (Bay Psalm Book)

    “Lost is our freedom
    When we submit to women so:
    Why do we need ‘em
    When, in their best, they work our woe?”
    —Thomas Campion (1567–1620)

    “The great work must inevitably be obscure, except to the very few, to those who like the author himself are initiated into the mysteries. Communication then is secondary: it is perpetuation which is important. For this only one good reader is necessary.”
    —Henry Miller (1891–1980)
