Work Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Work

1.
No bees, no honey; no work, no money.
Proverb

2.
There is no substitute for hard work.
Edison, Thomas A.

3.
While a person gets they can never lose.
Proverb, Scottish

4.
Anyone can do any amount of work, provided it isn't the work he is supposed to be doing at the moment.
Benchley, Robert

5.
Our works decay and disappear but God gentlest works stay looking down on the ruins we toil to rear.
Smith, Dr. Walter

6.
If I had eight hours to chop down a tree, I'd spend six sharpening my ax.
Lincoln, Abraham

7.
Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave whither thou goest. [Ecclesiastes 9:10]
Bible

8.
No true work since the world began was ever wasted; no true life since the world began has ever failed. Oh, understand those two perverted word, failure and success and measure them by the eternal, not the earthly, standard. When after thirty obscure, toilsome, unrecorded years in the shop of the village carpenter, one came forth to be pre-eminently the man of sorrows, to wander from city to city in homeless labors, and to expire in lonely agony upon the shameful cross -- was that a failure.
Farrar, Frederick

9.
Work either expands or contracts in order to fill the time available.
Parkinson's Law

10.
Work eight hours and sleep eight hours and make sure that they are not the same hours.
Pickens, T. Boone

11.
You have to do it by yourself, and you can't do it alone.
Rutte, Martin

12.
Plaster thick, some will stick.
Proverb

13.
At daybreak, when loath to rise, have this thought in thy mind: I am rising for a man's work.
Syrus, Publilius

14.
If your work is becoming uninteresting, so are you. Work is an inanimate thing and can be made lively and interesting only by injecting yourself into it. Your job is only as big as you are.
Hubbs, George C.

15.
Yogi saw three of his players in the locker room wearing Cone Head hats. Yogi said, Those guys make a pair.
Berra, Yogi

16.
Anything that comes easy, comes wrong.
Tessier, Josephine

17.
Every calling is great when greatly pursued.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

18.
Labor is the fabled magician's wand, the philosophers stone, and the cap of good fortune.
Johnson, James Weldon

19.
The achievements of an organization are the results of the combined effort of each individual.
Lombardi, Vince

20.
Coaches who let a championship team back off from becoming a dynasty are cowards.
Riley, Pat

21.
The object of living is work, experience, and happiness. There is joy in work. All that money can do is buy us someone else's work in exchange for our own. There is no happiness except in the realization that we have accomplished something.
Ford, Henry

22.
No longer diverted by other emotions, I work the way a cow grazes.
Kollwitz, KaThe

23.
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

24.
I am afraid that the pleasantness of an employment does not always evince its propriety.
Austen, Jane

25.
The way a team plays as a whole determines its success. You may have the greatest bunch of individual stars in the world, but if they don't play together, the club won't be worth a dime.
Ruth, Babe

26.
Bodily labor alleviates the pains of the mind and from this arises the happiness of the poor.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

27.
Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.
Roosevelt, Theodore

28.
Why should I let the toad work Squat on my life? Can't I use my wit as a pitchfork and drive the brute off?
Larkin, Philip

29.
You do your best work if you do a job that makes you happy.
Bob Ross

30.
People who work sitting down get paid more than people who work standing up.
Ogden Nash

31.
More men are killed by overwork than the importance of the world justifies.
Kipling, Rudyard

32.
A work is never completed except by some accident such as weariness, satisfaction, the need to deliver, or death: for, in relation to who or what is making it, it can only be one stage in a series of inner transformations.
Valery, Paul

33.
I suppose I have a really loose interpretation of work, because I think that just being alive is so much work at something you don't always want to do. The machinery is always going. Even when you sleep.
Warhol, Andy

34.
A well-run restaurant is like a winning baseball team. It makes the most of every crew member's talent and takes advantage of every split-second opportunity to speed up service.
Ogilvy, David

35.
Work joyfully and peacefully, knowing that right thoughts and right efforts will inevitably bring about right results.
Allen, James

36.
Remember that your work comes only moment by moment, and as surely as God calls you to work, he gives the strength to do it.
Maurice, Priscilla

37.
The time spent in trying to impress others could be spent in doing the things by which others would be impressed.
Romer, Frank

38.
I never did anything by accident, nor did any of my inventions come by accident; they came by work.
Edison, Thomas A.

Riley, Pat

44.
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

45.
Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.
Keller, Helen

46.
Anyone can do any amount of work provided it isn't the work he is supposed to be doing at the moment.
Robert Benchley

47.
By working hard, you get to play hard guilt-free.
Rohn, Jim

48.
I think any player will tell you that individual accomplishments help your ego, but if you don't win, it makes for a very, very long season. It counts more that the team has played well.
Robinson, David

49.
Want is the mother of industry.
Proverb

50.
The best work never was and never will be done for money.
