Famous quotes containing the word works:

    “All his works might well enough be embraced under the title of one of them, a good specimen brick, “On Heroes, Hero-Worship, and the Heroic in History.” Of this department he is the Chief Professor in the World’s University, and even leaves Plutarch behind.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “My plan of instruction is extremely simple and limited. They learn, on week-days, such coarse works as may fit them for servants. I allow of no writing for the poor. My object is not to make fanatics, but to train up the lower classes in habits of industry and piety.”
    —Hannah More (1745–1833)

    “On pragmatistic principles, if the hypothesis of God works satisfactorily in the widest sense of the word, it is true.”
    —William James (1842–1910)
