Famous quotes containing the words working and/or groups:
“I am a working woman. I take care of a home. I hold down a job. I am nuts.”
—Barbara Dale (b. 1940)
“In properly organized groups no faith is required; what is required is simply a little trust and even that only for a little while, for the sooner a man begins to verify all he hears the better it is for him.”
—George Gurdjieff (c. 1877–1949)
