Labour Demand

Famous quotes containing the words labour and/or demand:

“Let no one till his death
Be called unhappy. Measure not the work
Until the day’s out and the labour done.”
—Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)

“Most of the ladies and gentlemen who mourn the passing of the nation’s leaders wouldn’t know a leader if they saw one. If they had the bad luck to come across a leader, they would find out that he might demand something from them, and this impertinence would put an abrupt and indignant end to their wish for his return.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
