I approach love differently now that I know it's hard for it to work out.

I believe God is managing affairs and that He doesn't need any advice from me. With God in charge, I believe everything will work out for the best in the end. So what is there to worry about.

I believe in stopping work and eating lunch.

I believe we should work to end all racism in American society and staunchly defend the inherent rights of every person.

I burned out on AIDS and did no AIDS work for a couple of years. I was so angry that people were still getting this disease that nobody can give you - you have to go out and get it!

I can deal with people who watch me on stage but I am not good in communicating with people any other way than through my work.

I can't imagine anything more worthwhile than doing what I most love. And they pay me for it.

I do not believe in excuses. I believe in hard work as the prime solvent of life's problems.

I do not know anyone who has got to the top without hard work. That is the recipe. It will not always get you to the top, but should get you pretty near.

I do not suppose I shall be remembered for anything. But I don't think about my work in those terms. It is just as vulgar to work for the sake of posterity as to work for the sake of money.

I do the same exercises I did 50 years ago and they still work. I eat the same food I ate 50 years ago and it still works.

I don't feel right unless I have a sport to play or at least a way to work up a sweat.

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

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

I don't like to work with assistants. I'm already one too many the camera alone would be enough.

I don't mean to be arrogant and I really appreciate my fans but talking about what I am doing is not something I'm good at. I do what I do and that's it. I want to get back to my work and do more of it instead of talking about it.

I don't need the money, dear. I work for art.

I don't pay to have my dirty work done for me. I do it myself.

I don't pity any man who does hard work worth doing. I admire him. I pity the creature who does not work, at whichever end of the social scale he may regard himself as being.

I don't think about my previous success. I'm happy that the work I've done has been very successful.

I don't think any movie or any book or any work of art can solve the stalemate in the Middle East today. But it's certainly worth a try.

I don't think I am evangelical in my work.

I don't think people understand that being poor means you have to work from dawn until dusk just to survive through the day. I think there's some notion that poor people lie about all day not doing anything.

I don't think the money people in Hollywood have ever thought I was normal, but I am dedicated to my work and that's what counts.

I don't think you can work on feelings in politics, apart from anything else, political change can come very unexpectedly, sometimes overnight when you least expect it.

I don't try to focus on anything that doesn't affect me personally and how I go out there every single day. I'm just going to continue to work hard and focus on what I can control.

I don't wait for moods. You accomplish nothing if you do that. Your mind must know it has got to get down to work.

I don't want to achieve immortality through my work. I want to achieve it through not dying.

I don't want to die as long as I can work the minute I can not, I want to go.

I don't work at being ordinary.

I fear my enthusiasm flags when real work is demanded of me.

I felt I really wanted to back off from music completely and just work within the visual arts in some way. I started painting quite passionately at that time.

I find in working always the disturbing intrusion of elements not a part of my most interested vision, and the inevitable obliteration and replacement of this vision by the work itself as it proceeds.

I find it some of the hardest photography and the most challenging photography I've ever done. It's a real challenge to work with the natural features and the natural light.

I find my greatest pleasure, and so my reward, in the work that precedes what the world calls success.

I get bored easily, so I need to do a lot. I've started a record label, so I get to nurture new talent and talk about music, which is a passion of mine. I've written another book. And I get to come to work and do the TV show, which is always really fun.

I get that same queasy, nervous, thrilling feeling every time I go to work. That's never worn off since I was 12 years-old with my dad's 8-millimeter movie camera.

I give thanks everyday that I've been able to take my craziness and make it work for me.

I guess we all like to be recognized not for one piece of fireworks, but for the ledger of our daily work.

I guess what I learned the most was to feel lucky with what I have been able to accomplish and what I have and to feel humble about the people I have been able to work with.

I had a stick of CareFree gum, but it didn't work. I felt pretty good while I was blowing that bubble, but as soon as the gum lost its flavor, I was back to pondering my mortality.

I have always argued that change becomes stressful and overwhelming only when you've lost any sense of the constancy of your life. You need firm ground to stand on. From there, you can deal with that change.

I have always been pushed by the negative. The apparent failure of a play sends me back to my typewriter that very night, before the reviews are out. I am more compelled to get back to work than if I had a success.

I have been all things unholy. If God can work through me, he can work through anyone.

I have discovered the secret of happiness - it is work, either with the hands or the head. The moment I have something to do, the draughts are open and my chimney draws, and I am happy.

I have learned not to read reviews. Period. And I hate reviewers. All of them, or at least all but two or three. Life is much simpler ignoring reviews and the nasty people who write them. Critics should find meaningful work.

I have made the choices that work best for me. I know I cannot please everyone, and that's fine.

I have no idols. I admire work, dedication and competence.

I have no problem with the people who work hard to get success. But I think people are very jealous about success. I work very hard and they don't appreciate that.

I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

I have offended God and mankind because my work didn't reach the quality it should have.

I have so many things to work on, and so many ways that I fail. But that's what grace is all about. and I constantly wake up every morning trying to get better, trying to improve, trying to walk closer to God.

I have so much chaos in my life, it's become normal. You become used to it. You have to just relax, calm down, take a deep breath and try to see how you can make things work rather than complain about how they're wrong.

I have three daughters, so I can't be as tough as I want to be. When you have kids - especially daughters - they know how to work you. They're a lot smarter than we are, that's for sure. But I'll be more tough on their boyfriends.

I have to work really hard, eight shows a week, to get a nice check as an actor. But when I write a play, and it's a - knock wood - hit, the checks come in for many years.

I hope the millions of people I've touched have the optimism and desire to share their goals and hard work and persevere with a positive attitude.

I just get things done instead of talking about getting them done. I don't go out and party. I don't smoke, drink or do drugs and I'm not married, that leaves a lot of time for my work.

I keep guitars that are, you know, the neck's a little bit bent and it's a little bit out of tune. I want to work and battle it and conquer it and make it express whatever attitude I have at that moment. I want it to be a struggle.

I know some people say I can be funny. But there is always a deeper meaning to what I say. I am a socialist at heart and have the interests of the poor in mind. When people see how I manage to work my way out of tough situations, it gives them hope in their own life.

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.

I know you've heard it a thousand times before. But it's true - hard work pays off. If you want to be good, you have to practice, practice, practice. If you don't love something, then don't do it.

I learned that the only way you are going to get anywhere in life is to work hard at it. Whether you're a musician, a writer, an athlete or a businessman, there is no getting around it. If you do, you'll win - if you don't, you won't.

I learned the value of hard work by working hard.

I like Cinderella, I really do. She has a good work ethic. I appreciate a good, hard-working gal. And she likes shoes. The fairy tale is all about the shoe at the end, and I'm a big shoe girl.

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.

I like to talk about my obsession with french fries because I don't want people to think that 'Let's Move' is about complete, utter deprivation. It's about moderation and real-life changes and ideas that really work for families.

I like work it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours.

I look back on my life like a good day's work, it was done and I am satisfied with it.

I looked on child rearing not only as a work of love and duty but as a profession that was fully as interesting and challenging as any honorable profession in the world and one that demanded the best that I could bring to it.

I love my family very much. I wish I could see them a little more often than I do. But we understand because we're a show business family and we all work.

I love my wife and I know she loves me. We're best friends. We're just lucky to have found each other. It takes a lot of work but I just feel very blessed that I found the right person. It's a very fortunate situation and not everyone has that.

I love my work with a frenetic and perverse love, as an ascetic loves the hair shirt which scratches his belly.

I love my work, I love the people I work with, I do the best I can.

I met an American woman and got married so I had to get a job.

I myself would like to become more disciplined within my work.

I never called my work an 'art'. It's part of show business, the business of building entertainment.

I never did a day's work in my life. It was all fun.

I never did anything by accident, nor did any of my inventions come by accident they came by work.

I never did anything worth doing by accident, nor did any of my inventions come by accident they came by work.

I never expect to see a perfect work from an imperfect man.

I never work just to work. It's some combination of laziness and self-respect.

I obviously take a lot of pride in what I do on the football field, because that has the ability to influence a lot of people. That puts smiles on people's faces. That gives people a pep in their step on Monday morning when they go back to work.

I paint mostly from real life. It has to start with that. Real people, real street scenes, behind the curtain scenes, live models, paintings, photographs, staged setups, architecture, grids, graphic design. Whatever it takes to make it work.

I put my heart and my soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process.

I simply do not distinguish between work and play.

I spent my whole life in the private sector, 25 years in the private sector. I understand that when government takes more money out of the hands of people, it makes it more difficult for them to buy things. If they can't buy things, the economy doesn't grow. If the economy doesn't grow, we don't put Americans to work.

I stayed away from mathematics not so much because I knew it would be hard work as because of the amount of time I knew it would take, hours spent in a field where I was not a natural.

I still work out on a daily basis.

I suppose for me as an artist it wasn't always just about expressing my work I really wanted, more than anything else, to contribute in some way to the culture that I was living in. It just seemed like a challenge to move it a little bit towards the way I thought it might be interesting to go.

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.

I take the work seriously, just not myself in it.

I think I can work with any type of actor.

I think I should be active politically. Because I look upon myself as a politician. That's not a dirty work you know. Some people think that there are something wrong with politicians. Of course, something wrong with some politicians.

I think I've got my business notions and my sense for that sort of thing from my dad. My dad never had a chance to go to school. He couldn't read and write. But he was so smart. He was just one of those people that could just make the most of anything and everything that he had to work with.

I think life is full of challenges and problems. I don't believe that anyone is perfect. We all make mistakes. It's not a bed of roses, and you have to work real hard at it.

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

I think of doing a series as very hard work. But then I've talked to coal miners, and that's really hard work.

I think people should be allowed to do anything they want. We haven't tried that for a while. Maybe this time it'll work.

I think that everything is possible as long as you put your mind to it and you put the work and time into it. I think your mind really controls everything.

I think the American Dream says that anything can happen if you work hard enough at it and are persistent, and have some ability. The sky is the limit to what you can build, and what can happen to you and your family.

I think the best place to work in football is England.

I think the best thing I can do is to be a distraction. A husband lives and breathes his work all day long. If he comes home to more table thumping, how can the poor man ever relax?

I think the importance of doing activist work is precisely because it allows you to give back and to consider yourself not as a single individual who may have achieved whatever but to be a part of an ongoing historical movement.

I think the one thing this picture shows that's new is the psychological disproportion of the kids' demands on the parents. Parents are often at fault, but the kids have some work to do, too.

I think the person who takes a job in order to live - that is to say, for the money - has turned himself into a slave.

I think what made it difficult for people to get, and still makes it difficult for people to get, is the theatrical nature of the work and the fact that, my music doesn't exist without the performance-art element.

I think what makes our marriage work amid all the glare is that my husband is my best friend. He inspires everything in my life and enables me to do the best that I can. I want to hang out with him more than anyone.

I think when you begin to think of yourself as having achieved something, then there's nothing left for you to work towards. I want to believe that there is a mountain so high that I will spend my entire life striving to reach the top of it.

I told you I'm not going to criticize my successor. I'll just tell you that there are people at Gitmo that will kill American people at a drop of a hat and I don't believe that persuasion isn't going to work. Therapy isn't going to cause terrorists to change their mind.

I try to be known more for my work than for anything else.

I understand what's it like to work all week and on Friday night just want to go and leave your brain at the door, buy some popcorn and be thrilled by something.

I used to work in a fire hydrant factory. You couldn't park anywhere near the place.

I used to work in a funeral home to feel good about myself, just the fact that I was breathing.

I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake.

I wanted to be a doctor that I might be able to work without having to talk because for years I had been giving myself out in words.

I was a senior in high school when I decided I wanted to work on ants as a career. I just fell in love with them, and have never regretted it.

I was all about my thoughts, my work, my inspiration. I was always in hair.

I was interested by the idea that artists working in a totalitarian dictatorship or tsarist autocracy are secretly and slightly shamefully envied by artists who work in freedom. They have the gratification of intense interest: the authorities want to put them in jail, while there are younger readers for whom what they write is pure oxygen.

I was looking for a husband, but meanwhile to survive, I had to work.

I was one of those people who put too much emphasis on work and career and material possessions, and it took its toll on all my relationships, on my physical health, my emotional and mental health.

I was raised not to be rude, but I also try to get the best work out of people.

I wasn't born a fool. It took work to get this way.

I wasn't really a work conscious type of person.

I went back to work because someone had to pay for the groceries.

I will continue to work as hard as I can to make this organization proud. Every time I step on the field I will give everything I have and I will leave everything I have on the field every single Sunday.

I work really hard at trying to see the big picture and not getting stuck in ego. I believe we're all put on this planet for a purpose, and we all have a different purpose... When you connect with that love and that compassion, that's when everything unfolds.

I work to stay alive.

I work very hard, but when God opens that door for you - when life opens that door for you, I should say - I think it's important to be giving, to return the love back.

I would put our legislative and foreign policy accomplishments in our first two years against any president - with the possible exceptions of Johnson, FDR, and Lincoln - just in terms of what we've gotten done in modern history. But, you know, but when it comes to the economy, we've got a lot more work to do. And we're gonna keep on at it.

I write to keep from going mad from the contradictions I find among mankind - and to work some of those contradictions out for myself.

I'd like to believe that the people that have supported me in my work or identified with me in films, the people that feel they know me, they do and they don't have misconceptions - they understand. I believe that.

I'm actually living my life with the material I choose to work with.

I'm far from being god, but I work god damn hard.

I'm free of stress and worries now because if I don't like something I'm doing, I just find the fun in it instead of being miserable. Let me have fun with the people I work with, let me have fun making money - when I grew up so poor, ya know?

I'm going to work so that it's a pure guts race at the end, and if it is, I am the only one who can win it.

I'm Jewish. I don't work out. If God had wanted us to bend over, He would have put diamonds on the floor.

I'm just an individual who doesn't feel that I need to have somebody qualify my work in any particular way. I'm working for me.

I'm not in control of my muse. My muse does all the work.

I'm not interested in trying to work on people's perceptions. I am who I am, and if you don't take the time to learn about that, then your perception is going to be your problem.

I'm one of these very focused people when it comes to day-to-day work, and I'm trying not to think about what comes next so that I can stay very focused on what I'm doing now.

I'm so wrapped up in my work that it's often impossible to consider other things in my life. My marriage ended in divorce because of this, my relationship with Holly has suffered by this.

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'm tired of hearing it said that democracy doesn't work. Of course it doesn't work. We are supposed to work it.

I'm very happy to hear that my work inspires writers and painters. It's the most beautiful compliment, the greatest reward. Art should always be an exchange.

I'm very happy. I like my work and the various aspects of it - going around the world, teaching the gospel according to St. Albert.

I'm working myself to death.

I've always believed that if you put in the work, the results will come.

I've always wanted to work with Warren Beatty.

I've got a theory that if you give 100% all of the time, somehow things will work out in the end.

I've learned from experience that if you work harder at it, and apply more energy and time to it, and more consistency, you get a better result. It comes from the work.

I've made all my money on my own without my family and I work very hard.

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.

If Botticelli were alive today he'd be working for Vogue.

If children understand that beliefs should be substantiated with evidence, as opposed to tradition, authority, revelation or faith, they will automatically work out for themselves that they are atheists.

If God can work through me, he can work through anyone.

If I am elected President of these United States, I will work with all my energy and soul to restore that America, to lift our eyes to a better future. That future is our destiny. That future is out there. It is waiting for us. Our children deserve it, our nation depends upon it, the peace and freedom of the world require it.

If I don't feel confident about my body, I'm not going to sit at home and feel sorry for myself and not do something about it. It's all about taking action and not being lazy. So you do the work, whether it's fitness or whatever. It's about getting up, motivating yourself and just doing it.

If I go on a diet and work out, I'm always in a bad mood. I'd rather be a little heavier but nice.

If I went to work in a factory the first thing I'd do is join a union.

If in our daily life we can smile, if we can be peaceful and happy, not only we, but everyone will profit from it. This is the most basic kind of peace work.

If it is surely the means to the highest end we know, can any work be humble or disgusting? Will it not rather be elevating as a ladder, the means by which we are translated?

If my kid couldn't draw I'd make sure that my kitchen magnets didn't work.

If somebody says no to you, or if you get cut, Michael Jordan was cut his first year, but he came back and he was the best ever. That is what you have to have. The attitude that I'm going to show everybody, I'm going to work hard to get better and better.

If something is irrational, that means it won't work. It's usually unrealistic.

If there is dissatisfaction with the status quo, good. If there is ferment, so much the better. If there is restlessness, I am pleased. Then let there be ideas, and hard thought, and hard work. If man feels small, let man make himself bigger.

If there's any message to my work, it is ultimately that it's OK to be different, that it's good to be different, that we should question ourselves before we pass judgment on someone who looks different, behaves different, talks different, is a different color.

If we were logical, the future would be bleak, indeed. But we are more than logical. We are human beings, and we have faith, and we have hope, and we can work.

If you always put limit on everything you do, physical or anything else. It will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.

If you believe in what you are doing, then let nothing hold you up in your work. Much of the best work of the world has been done against seeming impossibilities. The thing is to get the work done.

If you can laugh together, you can work together.

If you cannot work on the marriage or the women is a moron, staying married and cheating makes the most sense because divorce is disruptive to the family life and your bank account.

If you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work.

If you do not feel yourself growing in your work and your life broadening and deepening, if your task is not a perpetual tonic to you, you have not found your place.

If you do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life.

If you don't understand that you work for your mislabeled 'subordinates,' then you know nothing of leadership. You know only tyranny.

If you don't want to work you have to work to earn enough money so that you won't have to work.

If you dream of something worth doing and then simply go to work on it and don't think anything of personalities, or emotional conflicts, or of money, or of family distractions it is amazing how quickly you get through those 5,000 steps.

If you go to work on your goals, your goals will go to work on you. If you go to work on your plan, your plan will go to work on you. Whatever good things we build end up building us.

If you have a success you have it for the wrong reasons. If you become popular it is always because of the worst aspects of your work.

If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.

If you have issues with family, friends, and people at work, try and solve these issues head on so you can move on and concentrate on having the life you want.

If you like small government you need to work hard at having a strong national defense that is not so militant. Personal liberty is the purpose of government, to protect liberty - not to run your personal life, not to run the economy, and not to pretend that we can tell the world how they ought to live.

If you love something - and there are things that I love - you do want more and more and more of it, but that's not the way to produce good work.

If you put all your strength and faith and vigor into a job and try to do the best you can, the money will come.

If you re-read your work, you can find on re-reading a great deal of repetition can be avoided by re-reading and editing.

If you start by promising what you don't even have yet, you'll lose your desire to work towards getting it.

If you start to disrespect the character you're playing, or play it too much for laughs, that can work for a sketch, it will sell some gags, but it's all technique. It's like watching a juggler - you can be impressed by it, but it's not going to touch you in any way.

If you want peace work for justice.

If you want to become a great chef, you have to work with great chefs. And that's exactly what I did.

If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea.

If you want to fight the evil you see in finance and industry, get to work reading the corporate filings, see if there has been fraud, and where you find it, report it to the SEC or write about it or blog about it.

If you want to make peace with your enemy, you have to work with your enemy. Then he becomes your partner.

If you watch a game, it's fun. If you play it, it's recreation. If you work at it, it's golf.

If you work hard and play by the rules, this country is truly open to you. You can achieve anything.

If you work just for money, you'll never make it, but if you love what you're doing and you always put the customer first, success will be yours.

If you're interested in 'balancing' work and pleasure, stop trying to balance them. Instead make your work more pleasurable.

If you're not willing to work hard, let someone else do it. I'd rather be with someone who does a horrible job, but gives 110% than with someone who does a good job and gives 60%.

If you're trying to achieve, there will be roadblocks. I've had them everybody has had them. But obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.

If you're working for a good company and you're happy there, and you're being compensated accordingly, and your work satisfies you, you should stay there.

In a very real sense, it will not be one man going to the moon it will be an entire nation. For all of us must work to put him there.

In action a great heart is the chief qualification. In work, a great head.

In dwelling, live close to the ground. In thinking, keep to the simple. In conflict, be fair and generous. In governing, don't try to control. In work, do what you enjoy. In family life, be completely present.

In every community, there is work to be done. In every nation, there are wounds to heal. In every heart, there is the power to do it.

In my heart, I'm an Alabaman who went up north to work.

In my work and in myself I reflect black people, women and men, as I reflect others. One day even the most self-protective ones will look into the mirror I provide and not be afraid.

In no direction that we turn do we find ease or comfort. If we are honest and if we have the will to win we find only danger, hard work and iron resolution.

In order that people may be happy in their work, these three things are needed: They must be fit for it. They must not do too much of it. And they must have a sense of success in it.

In order to excel, you must be completely dedicated to your chosen sport. You must also be prepared to work hard and be willing to accept constructive criticism. Without one-hundred percent dedication, you won't be able to do this.

In our daily life, we encounter people who are angry, deceitful, intent only on satisfying their own needs. There is so much anger, distrust, greed, and pettiness that we are losing our capacity to work well together.

In our work and in our living, we must recognize that difference is a reason for celebration and growth, rather than a reason for destruction.

In reality, serendipity accounts for one percent of the blessings we receive in life, work and love. The other 99 percent is due to our efforts.

In scientific work, those who refuse to go beyond fact rarely get as far as fact.

In the execution of Presidential decisions work to be true to his views, in fact and tone.

In the name of God, stop a moment, cease your work, look around you.

In war as in life, it is often necessary when some cherished scheme has failed, to take up the best alternative open, and if so, it is folly not to work for it with all your might.

Inconsiderate, rude behavior drives me nuts. And I guess the inconsiderate rudeness of social ineptitude definitely fuels my work.

Individual commitment to a group effort - that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work.

Individuality is founded in feeling and the recesses of feeling, the darker, blinder strata of character, are the only places in the world in which we catch real fact in the making, and directly perceive how events happen, and how work is actually done.

Inspiration is one thing and you can't control it, but hard work is what keeps the ship moving. Good luck means, work hard. Keep up the good work.

Instead of asking 'How much damage will the work in question bring about?' why not ask 'How much good? How much joy?'

Integrate what you believe in every single area of your life. Take your heart to work and ask the most and best of everybody else, too.

Intelligence is the ability to avoid doing work, yet getting the work done.

It ain't easy to break out of a mold, but if you do your work, people will ultimately see what you're capable of. Too often, people find it easier to make assumptions and stick with what they believe. They put you in a place and it makes their job easier. The good people constantly search for something different.

It behooves every man to remember that the work of the critic is of altogether secondary importance, and that, in the end, progress is accomplished by the man who does things.

It can be liberating to get fired because you realize the world doesn't end. There's other ways to make money, better jobs.

It feels good to have your work respected again.

It is astonishing what an effort it seems to be for many people to put their brains definitely and systematically to work.

It is no good getting furious if you get stuck. What I do is keep thinking about the problem but work on something else. Sometimes it is years before I see the way forward. In the case of information loss and black holes, it was 29 years.

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

It is not sufficient to see and to know the beauty of a work. We must feel and be affected by it.

It is not wealth one asks for, but just enough to preserve one's dignity, to work unhampered, to be generous, frank and independent.

It is now for the Catholic Church to bend herself to her work with calmness and generosity. It is for you to observe her with renewed and friendly attention.

It is our best work that God wants, not the dregs of our exhaustion. I think he must prefer quality to quantity.

It is possible to demonstrate God's existence, although not a priori, yet a posteriori from some work of His more surely known to us.

It is the quality of our work which will please God and not the quantity.

It is the working man who is the happy man. It is the idle man who is the miserable man.

It is understanding that gives us an ability to have peace. When we understand the other fellow's viewpoint, and he understands ours, then we can sit down and work out our differences.

It is utterly false and cruelly arbitrary to put all the play and learning into childhood, all the work into middle age, and all the regrets into old age.

It is your work in life that is the ultimate seduction.

It isn't enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn't enough to believe in it. One must work at it.

It seems as if an age of genius must be succeeded by an age of endeavour riot and extravagance by cleanliness and hard work.

It sometimes makes people feel better about themselves, you know, to put other people down, or make fun of them, or maybe make mockery of their work and that doesn't make me feel good at all.

It takes a lot of energy to be negative. You have to work at it. But smiling is painless. I'd rather spend my energy smiling.

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.

It was the labor movement that helped secure so much of what we take for granted today. The 40-hour work week, the minimum wage, family leave, health insurance, Social Security, Medicare, retirement plans. The cornerstones of the middle-class security all bear the union label.

It will work. I am a marketing genius.

It's a great relationship when you can work with the person who you consider to be your soul mate.

It's a lot easier to do good work when you have good words to say and work with good people.

It's all about quality of life and finding a happy balance between work and friends and family.

It's continuously humbling to work hard, you know? As long as you've got a good work ethic and a sense of humor, I don't think anybody can become too much of an egoist under those circumstances.

It's definitely a dream come true to be recognized and to be able to sign autographs. But, it's also a lot of hard work and can be draining. If you don't know already, you will quickly learn who your real friends are.

It's easier to change what you do than people think it is. If you don't change, your field changes around you.

It's hard enough to work and raise a family when your kids are all healthy and relatively normal, but when you add on some kind of disability or disease, it can just be such a burden.
