Quotations regarding 'Work'
Reading a novel in which all characters illustrate patience, hard work, chastity, and delayed gratification could be a pretty dull experience.
Thomas Perry, German Musician (1963- )
When we get involved in the ratings, then we're doing the network's job. We need to focus on our work.
William Petersen, American Actor (1953- )
Acting is really scary, but it's also challenging, fun, hard work. There's always an element of improvisation with every actor, even when something is really scripted.
Michael Pitt, American Actor (1981- )
Housework is the only activity at which men are allowed to be consistently inept because they are thought to be so competent at everything else.
Letty Cottin Pogrebin, -
A dream doesn't become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work.
Colin Powell, American Statesman (1937- )
There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.
Colin Powell, American Statesman (1937- )
Success is the result of perfection, hard work, learning from failure, loyalty, and persistence.
Colin Powell, American Statesman (1937- )
Hard work - I mean, does anybody use that term anymore? Laziness doesn't fly. It's all in the practice. It does take work and it ain't easy - but man, the rewards!
Susan Powter, American Celebrity (1957- )
The trouble with opportunity is that it always comes disguised as hard work.
Herbert Prochnow, -
I would rather have one article a day of this sort; and these ten or twenty lines might readily represent a whole day's hard work in the way of concentrated, intense thinking and revision, polish of style, weighing of words.
Joseph Pulitzer, American Publisher (1847-1911)
In fact, this network, which we may identify as the Round Table Groups, has no aversion to cooperating with the Communists, or any other groups, and frequently does so.
Carroll Quigley, American Writer (1910-1977)
Once again the mastermind was Lionel Curtis, and the earlier Round Table Groups and Institutes of International Affairs were used as nuclei for the new network.
Carroll Quigley, American Writer (1910-1977)
All life demands struggle. Those who have everything given to them become lazy, selfish, and insensitive to the real values of life. The very striving and hard work that we so constantly try to avoid is the major building block in the person we are today.
Ralph Ransom, -
The ARPAnet was the first transcontinental, high-speed computer network.
Eric S. Raymond, American Author (1957- )
It's true hard work never killed anybody, but I figure, why take the chance?
Ronald Reagan, American President (1911-2004)
We're building on an international network with many others for the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act. There are so many things we can do to carry forward policies.
Janet Reno, American Public Servant (1938- )
I'm not under too much of an illusion of how smart or un-smart I am because filmmaking ultimately is about teamwork.
Guy Ritchie, British Director (1968- )
When you make the judgement as a network that there are only three candidates, you are censoring points of view.
Tim Robbins, Actor (1958- )
Enjoy your sweat because hard work doesn't guarantee success, but without it you don't have a chance.
Alex Rodriguez, American Athlete (1975- )
I wouldn't totally rule out doing Letterman or the Tonight Show if I had a set that I just happened to write that I thought was funny but was still appropriate for network censors. But I'm not going to go out of my way.
Joe Rogan, American Comedian (1967- )
