Famous quotes containing the word work:

    “But a man must keep an eye on his servants, if he would not have them rule him. Man is a shrewd inventor, and is ever taking the hint of a new machine from his own structure, adapting some secret of his own anatomy in iron, wood, and leather, to some required function in the work of the world. But it is found that the machine unmans the user. What he gains in making cloth, he loses in general power.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “I move my thin legs into your office
    and we work over the cadaver of my soul.
    We make a stage set out of my past
    and stuff painted puppets into it.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “I must work, so as not to be a fool, to get on, to become a journalist, because that’s what I want!... I can’t imagine that I would have to lead the same sort of life as Mummy ... and all the women who do their work and are then forgotten. I must have something besides a husband and children, something that I can devote myself to!”
    —Anne Frank (1929–1945)
