Famous quotes containing the words white, man and/or boss:
“Kind Sir: Lost and of your same kind
I have turned around twice with my eyes sealed
and the wood were white and my night mind
saw such strange happenings, untold and unreal.”
—Anne Sexton (19281974)
“A man perfects himself by working. Foul jungles are cleared away, fair seed-fields rise instead, and stately cities; and withal the man himself first ceases to be a jungle, and foul unwholesome desert thereby.... The man is now a man.”
—Thomas Carlyle (17951881)
“When you overpay small people you frighten them. They know that their merits or activities entitle them to no such sums as they are receiving. As a result their boss soars out of economic into magic significance. He becomes a source of blessings rather than wages. Criticism is sacrilege, doubt is heresy.”
—Ben Hecht (18931964)
