Famous quotes containing the words work and/or effort:
“I suppose I have a really loose interpretation of work, because I think that just being alive is so much work at something you dont always want to do.... The machinery is always going. Even when you sleep.”
—Andy Warhol (19281987)
“You know that the nucleus of a time is not
The poet but the poem, the growth of the mind
Of the world, the heroic effort to live expressed
As victory. The poet does not speak in ruins
Nor stand there making orotund consolations.
He shares the confusions of intelligence.”
—Wallace Stevens (18791955)
