Labor Performed

Famous quotes containing the words labor and/or performed:

    Actually, the laboring man has not leisure for a true integrity day by day; he cannot afford to sustain the manliest relations to men; his labor would be depreciated in the market.
    He has no time to be anything but a machine.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Ambition often puts Men upon doing the meanest offices; so climbing is performed in the same position with creeping.
    Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
