Forced Labour

Famous quotes containing the words forced and/or labour:

    I wasn’t born to be a fighter. I was born with a gentle nature, a flexible character and an organism as equilibrated as it is judged hysterical. I shouldn’t have been forced to fight constantly and ferociously. The causes I have fought for have invariably been causes that should have been gained by a delicate suggestion. Since they never were, I made myself into a fighter.
    Margaret Anderson (1886–1973)

    The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.
    —Bible: Hebrew Psalms 90:10.

    The Book of Common Prayer (1662)
