Famous quotes containing the word work:

    “Think of, and look at, your work as though it were done by your enemy. If you look at it to admire it you are lost.”
    —Samuel Butler (1835–1902)

    “You are made
    Rather to wonder at the things you hear
    Than to work any.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “It was always the work that was the gyroscope in my life. I don’t know who could have lived with me. As an architect you’re absolutely devoured. A woman’s cast in a lot of roles and a man isn’t. I couldn’t be an architect and be a wife and mother.”
    —Eleanore Kendall Pettersen (b. 1916)
