Famous quotes containing the word work:

    “Idleness makes people feeble and peevish. Work makes them stalwart and prone to anger.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “... Washington was not only an important capital. It was a city of fear. Below that glittering and delightful surface there is another story, that of underpaid Government clerks, men and women holding desperately to work that some political pull may at any moment take from them. A city of men in office and clutching that office, and a city of struggle which the country never suspects.”
    —Mary Roberts Rinehart (1876–1958)

    “The lady—bearer of this—says she has two sons who want to work. Set them at it, if possible. Wanting to work is so rare a merit, that it should be encouraged.”
    —Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
