Working Quotes
When an executive walked on our floor, it was at their own risk. As far as what others thought of working for me, I know I was very tough at times, and would storm down the hall after watching some bad animation from Korea. But overall, I feel we had a good time.
Joe Murray
If an explanation is so vague in its inherent nature, or so unskillfully molded in its formulation, that specific deductions subject to empirical verification or refutation can not be based upon it, then it can never serve as a working hypothesis. A hypothesis with which one can not work is not a working hypothesis.
Douglas Wilson Johnson
Asking a working writer what he thinks about critics is like asking a lamppost what it feels about dogs
John Osborne
Vanity working on a weak head, produces every sort of mischief.
Jane Austen
Making money is art and working is art and good business is the best art.
Andy Warhol
Losers live in the past. Winners learn from the past and enjoy working in the present toward the future.
Denis Waitley
Of all the things that oppress me, this sense of the evil working of nature herself - my disgust at her barbarity - clumsiness - darkness - bitter mockery of herself - is the most desolating.
John Ruskin
If you don't get feedback from your performers and your audience, you're going to be working in a vacuum.
Peter Maxwell Davies
What no wife of a writer understands is that a writer is working when he's staring out the window.
Burton Rascoe
NO CHALLENGE, NO CHANGE ! Forget the no pain no gain thing. If it's pain, then STOP! I made up the phrase 'no challenge no change' over 15 years ago when I realized it was not the pain that made one change, but the challenge that was overcome. It started out with references to working out and then I realized I could apply that idea to every part of my life, including motherhood, relationships, school, work, etc. I will continue to live by this phrase and hope to instill it in my daughter as well. It has gotten me through so many hard times, including divorce, losing my mom 3 years ago, and while being in school for the last 7 years... getting closer to that PhD every semester. There have been an insane amount of challenges I have dealt with in my life, so my goal is that the changes that result will in turn have an insane impact, not only on myself, but my daughter, and everyone I come into contact with
Robin Akawi
Faith and doubt both are needed -- not as antagonists, but working side by side -- to take us around the unknown curve.
Lillian Smith
Knowledge comes by eyes always open and working hands, and there is no knowledge that is not power.
Jeremy Taylor
The only way we can develop muscle is through regular exercise. As soon as we stop stretching and working toward higher ethics, our standards start to sag. The muscle gets soft, and instead of excellence we have to settle for mediocrity. Maybe something even worse.
Price Pritchett
The finest workers in stone are not copper or steel tools, but the gentle touches of air and water working at their leisure with a liberal allowance of time.
Henry David Thoreau
