Gentleness doesn't get work done unless you happen to be a hen laying eggs.

Everyone brings their own particular skill set to the job, and acting training can work for a lot of actors, and it can't. I've seen a lot of really good actors go into acting schools and then come out a little bit corrupted.

Does it mean this, does it mean that, that's all anybody wants to know. I'd say what any decent poet would say if anyone dared ask him to analyze his work: if you see it, darling, then it's there!

I'm not into business at all.

Those who have failed to work toward the truth have missed the purpose of living

“Work out your own salvation. Do not depend on others.”

We did a book signing and people came up to me. There was an expectant mother who was like, "I think we might name our child Zach because of your work."

“Those who have failed to work toward the truth have missed the purpose of living.”

“Your work is to discover your work and then with all your heart to give yourself to it.”

Work out your own salvation. Do not depend on others.

“Education is not a thing apart from life—not a “system,” nor a philosophy; it is direct teaching how to live and how to work.”

Your task? To work with all the passion of your being to acquire an inner light.

Whatever your life’s work is, do it well. A man should do his job so well that the living, the dead, and the unborn could do it no better.

Wishing to be friends is quick work, but friendship is a slow-ripening fruit.

“If you want to build a ship, don’t drum up the men to gather wood, divide the work, and give orders. Instead, teach them to yearn for the vast and endless sea.” 

"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."

In order to become prosperous, a person must initially work very hard, so he or she has to sacrifice a lot of leisure time.

The most important motive for work in school and in life is pleasure in work, pleasure in its result and the knowledge of the value of the result to the community.

Although I have a regular work schedule, I take time to go for long walks on the beach so that I can listen to what is going on inside my head. If my work isn’t going well, I lie down in the middle of a workday and gaze at the ceiling while I listen and visualize what goes on in my imagination.

When I am working on a problem I never think about beauty. I only think about how to solve the problem. But when I have finished, if the solution is not beautiful, I know it is wrong.
