Best Quotes about Work

1.
Life grants nothing to us mortals without hard work.
Horace

2.
The sharp employ the sharp.
Jerrold, Douglas William

3.
It is an article of faith in my creed to pick the man who does not take himself seriously, but does take his work seriously.
Cahill, Michael C.

4.
When you choose the paradigm of service, it turns everything you do from a job into a gift.
Oprah Winfrey

5.
We must hold a man amenable to reason for the choice of his daily craft or profession. It is not an excuse any longer for his deeds that they are the custom of his trade. What business has he with an evil trade?
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

6.
Nobody ever drowned in his own sweat.
Landers, Ann

7.
In case of doubt, do a little more than you have to.
Mitchell, Warren

8.
At least one study of blocked writers has found that they were more productive and more creative when they were essentially forced to write instead of scribbling only when the mood struck them.
Daniel Akst

9.
Work eight hours and sleep eight hours and make sure that they are not the same hours.
Pickens, T. Boone

10.
What chance gathers she easily scatters. A great person attracts great people and knows how to hold them together.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

11.
Hard work brings prosperity; playing around brings poverty.
Bible

12.
The secret of greatness is simple: do better work than any other man in your field - and keep on doing it.
Wilfred A. Peterson

13.
When I think of work, it's mostly about having control over your destiny, as opposed to being at the mercy of what's out there.
Sinise, Gary

14.
Thunder is impressive, but it is lightning that does the work.
Twain, Mark

15.
Anything that comes easy, comes wrong.
Tessier, Josephine

16.
The fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results.

17.
I believe that good things come to those who work.
Chamberlain, Wilt

18.
We have always found that people are most productive in small teams with tight budgets, time lines and the freedom to solve their own problems.
Rollwagen, John

19.
Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion. General recognition of this fact is shown in the proverbial phrase It is the busiest man who has time to spare.
Parkinson, C. Northcote

20.
A shoe that is too large is apt to trip one, and when too small, to pinch the feet. So it is with those whose fortune does not suit them.
Horace

21.
One man can be a crucial ingredient on a team, but one man cannot make a team.
Abdul-Jabbar, Kareem

22.
The moment we break faith with one another, the sea engulfs us and the light goes out.
Baldwin, James

23.
Anyone can do any amount of work provided it isn't the work he is supposed to be doing at the moment.
Robert Benchley

24.
After love, the most sacred gift you can give is your labor.
Pennebaker, Don Alan

25.
A team is a team is a team. Shakespeare said that many times.
Devine, Dan

26.
Work joyfully and peacefully, knowing that right thoughts and right efforts will inevitably bring about right results.
Allen, James

27.
Whenever it is in any way possible, every boy and girl should choose as his life work some occupation which he should like to do anyhow, even if he did not need the money.
William Lyon Phelps

28.
After all, it is hard to master both life and work equally well. So if you are bound to fake one of them, it had better be life.
Brodsky, Joseph

29.
The greatest analgesic, soporific, stimulant, tranquilizer, narcotic, and to some extent even antibiotic --in short, the closest thing to a genuine panacea --known to medical science is work.
Szasz, Thomas

30.
A new breed of Americans born out of the social movements of the 60s and grown into a majority in the 70s holds a set of values so markedly different from the traditional outlook that they promise to transform the character of work in America in the 80s.
Yankelovitch, Daniel

31.
There is a kind of victory in good work, no matter how humble.
Kemp, Jack

32.
It is literally true that you can succeed best and quickest by helping others to succeed.
Hill, Napoleon

33.
It does not seem to be true that work necessarily needs to be unpleasant. It may always have to be hard, or at least harder than doing nothing at all. But there is ample evidence that work can be enjoyable, and that indeed, it is often the most enjoyable part of life.
Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi

34.
Plans are only good intentions unless they immediately degenerate into hard work.
Peter Drucker

35.
My work is magnified by the fact that the streets of heaven are too crowded with angels -- we know their names, they number a thousand for each red ribbon we wear here tonight. [Accepting his Best Actor Oscar for Philadelphia]
Hanks, Tom

36.
You all know that even when women have full rights, they still remain fatally downtrodden because all housework is left to them. In most cases housework is the most unproductive, the most barbarous and the most arduous work a woman can do. It is exceptionally petty and does not include anything that would in any way promote the development of the woman.
Lenin, Vladimir Ilyich

37.
You'll never succeed in idealizing hard work. Before you can dig mother earth you've got to take off your ideal jacket. The harder a man works, at brute labor, the thinner becomes his idealism, the darker his mind.
Lawrence, D. H.

38.
The best work never was and never will be done for money.
Ruskin, John

39.
When I was a young man I observed that nine out of ten things I did were failures. I didn't want to be a failure, so I did ten times more work.
Shaw, George Bernard

40.
You do your best work if you do a job that makes you happy.
Bob Ross

41.
To each man is reserved a work which he alone can do.
Blow, Susan

42.
When your team is winning, be ready to be tough, because winning can make you soft. On the other hand, when your team is losing, stick by them. Keep believing.
Schembechler, Bo

43.
It's not the hours you put in your work that counts, it's the work you put in the hours.
Sam Ewing

44.
If the power to do hard work is not a skill, it's the best possible substitute for it.
Garfield, James A.

45.
While a person gets they can never lose.
Proverb, Scottish

46.
If food were free, why work?
Horton, Doug

47.
Most people show up for work being physically accoutered but mentally disheveled.
Butterworth, Eric

48.
Deprived of meaningful work, men and women lose their reason for existence; they go stark, raving mad.
Dostoevsky, Fyodor

49.
Work consists of whatever a body is obliged to do, and play consists of whatever a body is not obliged to do.
Twain, Mark

50.
Blessed is he who has found his work; let him ask no other blessedness.
Thomas Carlyle
