Hungarian Working People

Famous quotes containing the words working and/or people:

“[My father] was a lazy man. It was the days of independent incomes, and if you had an independent income you didn’t work. You weren’t expected to. I strongly suspect that my father would not have been particularly good at working anyway. He left our house in Torquay every morning and went to his club. He returned, in a cab, for lunch, and in the afternoon went back to the club, played whist all afternoon, and returned to the house in time to dress for dinner.”
—Agatha Christie (1891–1976)

“He took as his motto: misfortune is good for something. How many good people have been able to say: misfortune is good for nothing!”
—Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)
