Famous quotes containing the word work:
“In some withdrawn, unpublic mead
Let me sigh upon a reed,
Or in the woods, with leafy din,
Whisper the still evening in:
Some still work give me to do,
Onlybe it near to you!
For Id rather be thy child
And pupil, in the forest wild,
Than be the king of men elsewhere,
And most sovereign slave of care:
To have one moment of thy dawn,
Than share the citys year forlorn.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“And work was little in the house,
She was free,”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“To do his work well a workman must first sharpen his tools.”
—Chinese proverb.
