Famous quotes containing the words work and/or hours:
“So is the English Parliament provincial. Mere country bumpkins, they betray themselves, when any more important question arises for them to settle, the Irish question, for instance,—the English question why did I not say? Their natures are subdued to what they work in. Their “good breeding” respects only secondary objects.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The hours of folly are measured by the clock, but of wisdom no clock can measure.”
—William Blake (1757–1827)
