We need to steer clear of this poverty of ambition where people want to drive fancy cars and wear nice clothes and live in nice apartments but don't want to work hard to accomplish these things. Everyone should try to realize their full potential.

And if small businesspeople say they made it on their own all they are saying is that nobody else worked seven days a week in their place. Nobody showed up in their place to open the door at five in the morning. Nobody did their thinking and worrying and sweating for them.

The most compelling reason for most people to buy a computer for the home will be to link it to a nationwide communications network. We're just in the beginning stages of what will be a truly remarkable breakthrough for most people - as remarkable as the telephone.

The biggest mistake that you can make is to believe that you are working for somebody else. Job security is gone. The driving force of a career must come from the individual. Remember: Jobs are owned by the company you own your career!

Work alone is noble.

I'm the first to admit this whole salary thing is getting out of control. In the final analysis it's still about the work.

I really don't give it that much thought. A lot of people talk about it and they saw how difficult it is to do. I just go out there and I work hard.

I know some people say it's not the best to work with your family but I have never understood that because it's always worked so well for me.

No matter how vast how total the failure of man here on earth the work of man will be resumed elsewhere. War leaders talk of resuming operations on this front and that but man's front embraces the whole universe.

It is ridiculous for any man to criticize the works of another if he has not distinguished himself by his own performances

It was the early 1970s and I was recently divorced. I had three kids and was totally broke. I managed to find work back east on the straw-hat circuit - summer stock - but couldn't afford hotels so I lived out of the back of my truck under a hard shell.

Work is the price which is paid for reputation.

The confession of evil works is the first beginning of good works.

Thinking is the hardest work there is which is probably the reason why so few engage in it.

The fact is that people are attracted to new work and by new work.

The mediator of the inexpressible is the work of art.

Good works never languish for want of funds, the Lord will come to their rescue. Only it may take some time, do not lose heart... You should not collect money in devious ways. Help should come from pious hearts from well-earned money from persons who know and appreciate the purpose for which they give. That is why I oppose all benefit shows where you tempt people with a dance or a drama or a film and collect money for your pet plan.

Talent in cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work.

I need to keep working on myself for a while.

It is not real work unless you would rather be doing something else.

We do not think the Boeing IAM workers will strike when their contract expires on Sept. 2.

It took a lot of blood sweat and tears to get to where we are today but we have just begun. Today we begin in earnest the work of making sure that the world we leave our children is just a little bit better than the one we inhabit today.

In the aftermath of September 11 and as the 9/11 Commission report so aptly demonstrates it is clear that our intelligence system is not working the way that it should.

I'm working and everything's fine.

I think like any marriage especially when you've had divorced parents like myself, you want to try even harder to make it work.

When nature has work to be done she creates a genius to do it.

If a man cannot do brain work without stimulants of any kind he had better turn to hand work it is an indication on Nature's part that she did not mean him to be a head worker.

I don't have anything to say about other people's art and their work.

Talent wins games but teamwork and intelligence wins championships.

Old age is not a matter for sorrow. It is matter for thanks if we have left our work done behind us.

Getting fired can produce a particularly bountiful payday for a CEO. Indeed he can 'earn' more in that single day while cleaning out his desk than an American worker earns in a lifetime of cleaning toilets. Forget the old maxim about nothing succeeding like success: Today in the executive suite the all-too-prevalent rule is that nothing succeeds like failure.

The theater needs continual reminders that there is nothing more debasing than the work of those who do well what is not worth doing at all.

I don't know that there is much the United States can do except work with the international community.

Be true to your work your word and your friend.

The path of least resistance and least trouble is a mental rut already made. It requires troublesome work to undertake the alternation of old beliefs.

Men were not intended to work with the accuracy of tools to be precise and perfect in all their actions.

One might think that the money value of an invention constitutes its reward to the man who loves his work. But... I continue to find my greatest pleasure and so my reward in the work that precedes what the world calls success.

I like the challenge of trying different things and wondering whether it's going to work or whether I'm going to fall flat on my face.

Whoever we play it's going to be tough because it's two great teams. We just have to make sure we do our homework and go out there and try to execute.

If any human being earnestly desires to push on to new discoveries instead of just retaining and using the old, to win victories over Nature as a worker rather than over hostile critics as a disputant, to attain in fact clear and demonstrative know

There is never time in the future in which we will work out our salvation. The challenge is in the moment, the time is always now.

From as long as literally as far back as I can remember I've liked puns word jokes I can literally recall looking at a comic at the age of six or seven and I remember what I enjoyed and what it was precisely and how the joke worked.

Language ought to be the joint creation of poets and manual workers.

When you're young you look at television and think there's a conspiracy. The networks have conspired to dumb us down. But when you get a little older you realize that's not true. The networks are in business to give people exactly what they want.

The best preparation for good work tomorrow is to do good work today.

We of the sinking middle class may sink without further struggles into the working class where we belong and probably when we get there it will not be so dreadful as we feared for after all we have nothing to lose.

Why do I talk about the benefits of failure? Simply because failure meant a stripping away of the inessential. I stopped pretending to myself that I was anything other than what I was and began to direct all my energy into finishing the only work that mattered to me.

I like a teacher who gives you something to take home to think about besides homework.

(Prime Minister Joseph) Chamberlain loves the working man - he loves to see him work

My family kinda hit the skids. We were experiencing poverty at that point. We all got a job where the whole family had to work as security guards and janitors. And I just got angry.

I really have created a family. I work with the people I love, I travel with them, I make films with them, and I'm in an office with them. So in a weird way - I know I haven't birthed a child - I feel that I'm a part of creating a family. It's a tribe. I love that word.

I'm working on bringing the instant film camera back as part of the future.

I have an everyday religion that works for me. Love yourself first and everything else falls into line.
