Job

Famous quotes containing the word job:

“It is not [the toddler’s] job yet to consider other people’s feelings, he has to come to terms with his own first. If he hits you and you hit him back to “show him what it feels like,” you will have given a lesson he is not ready to learn. He will wail as if hitting was a totally new idea to him. He makes no connections between what he did to you and what you then did to him; between your feelings and his own.”
—Penelope Leach (20th century)

“The LORD said to Satan, “Where have you come from?” Satan answered the LORD, “From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it.””
—Bible: Hebrew, Job 1:7.

“If your job is to leaven ordinary lives with elevating spectacle, be elevating or be gone.”
—George F. Will (b. 1941)
