New legislation has just been adopted by the International Labour Organization on the Worst Forms of Child Labor, such as bonded labour, prostitution and hazardous work.
Carol Bellamy
Some day, even the experts will figure out, that crime is not caused by rap music...or even my music, but by a power structure of self-absorbed property owners so brain dead and stupid they won't even see that if you're too goddamn greedy to pay taxes for schools and services, they're not going to be any good any more! And that uneducated time bombs are a very poor investment as a future work force. And if you go on teaching people that life is cheap, and leave them to rot in ghettos and jails, they may one day feel justified in coming back to rob and kill you. Duh!
Jello Biafra
It required a lot less energy, intelligence, and competence to run against government than to try to make government work.
Joseph Robinette
If I cannot sing a work, I cannot conduct it.
Sir Thomas Beecham
Its not as if grace did one half of the work and free choice the other; each does the whole work, in its own peculiar contribution. Grace does the whole work, and so does free choice with this one qualification: That whereas the whole is done in free choice, so is the whole done of grace.
St. Bernard of Clairvaux
There is no more miserable human being than one in whom nothing is habitual but indecision, and for whom the lighting of every cigar, the drinking of every cup, the time of rising and going to bed every day, and the beginning of every bit of work, are subjects of express volitional deliberation.
William James
To get profit without risk, experience without danger, and reward without work, is as impossible as it is to live without being born.
A. P. Gouthev
It is impossible to get exhausted in work for God. We get exhausted because we try to do Gods work in our own way.
Oswald Chambers
It is our best work that God wants, not the dregs of our exhaustion. I think he must prefer quality to quantity.
George MacDonald
Unlike the small community, where every person lives in the illusion of having the same ideals, beliefs, and values as everyone else, in the larger context of plural communities-be it in country, continent, or globe we live in the illusion of absolute difference. So, fearing the possibility that the interaction will change us, we magnify the threat involved in engaging with that which differs from us. Change is stressful, and costly, because it requires learning to navigate the unfamiliar. In the end, you cannot work with anyone who is different, and problems that could be resolved if we allowed everyone to contribute the best of themselves begin to look intractable.
Hafsat Abiola
O my boy! he who doeth good shall meet with good; and he who doeth evil shall meet with evil, for the Lord requiteth a man according to the measure of his work.
Ahiqar
We can work together for a better world with men and women of goodwill, those who radiate the intrinsic goodness of humankind.
Wangari Maathai
It is not women's fault that diets do not work. It is not perversity of lack of willpower. God did this - in Her great wisdom.
Dr. Wayne Callaway
Nothing ever comes to one, that is worth having, except as a result of hard work.
Booker T. Washington
Hard work spotlights the character of people: some turn up their sleeves, some turn up their noses, and some don't turn up at all.
