All art is at once surface and symbol. Those who go beneath the surface do so at their peril. Those who read the symbol do so at their peril. It is the spectator, and not life, that art really mirrors. Diversity of opinion about a work of art shows that the work is new, complex and vital.
Oscar Wilde
I’m lucky to be part of a team who help to make me look good, and they deserve as much of the credit for my success as I do for the hard work we have all put in on the training ground.

Jazz, to me, is one of the inherent expressions of Negro life in America: the eternal tom-tom beating in the Negro soul – the tom-tom of revolt against weariness in a white world, a world of subway trains, and work, work, work; the tom-tom of joy and laughter, and pain swallowed in a smile.

These are great qualities that they must work towards. This is my message to the young people.
A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
I think that I was raised by two of the best people ever. My mother and father are just the definition of hard work, like what hard work brings to you. They’ve taught me and my brothers and sisters to set your goals high and to give everything to reach them.

Phillip Sweet
It’s when children are 15, 16 or 17 that they decide whether they want to be a doctor, an engineer, a politician or go to the Mars or moon. That is the time they start having a dream, and that’s the time you can work on them. You can help them shape their dreams.
A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
I would be a liar, a hypocrite, or a fool – and I’m not any of those – to say that I don’t write for the reader. I do. But for the reader who hears, who really will work at it, going behind what I seem to say. So I write for myself and that reader who will pay the dues.

Everybody wants to be famous, but nobody wants to do the work. I live by that. You grind hard so you can play hard. At the end of the day, you put all the work in, and eventually it’ll pay off. It could be in a year, it could be in 30 years. Eventually, your hard work will pay off.
Kevin Hart
Let there be work, bread, water and salt for all.

Helen Mirren
I used to work in the cotton fields a lot when I was young. There were a lot of African Americans working out there.

Steve Jobs
My natural accent is American. I chose to speak with a U.K. accent when I was about to enter the final year at drama school in London. I was going to try to find a way to stay in the U.K. after I finished college and could not imagine trying to live and get work there with an American accent.

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

Be extra careful in the work environment with those who like to maintain their position through charm and being political, rather than getting things done. They are very prone to envying and hating those who work hard and get results. They will slander and sabotage you without any warning.

Margaret Thatcher
Never lose the childlike wonder. Show gratitude… Don’t complain; just work harder… Never give up.
Randy Pausch
The world’s pretty big. I have to see everything, do everything, eat everything. You’ll never be as young as you are right now, so while your legs still work, while you still have the breath in your lungs, go. At the end of our lives, we only regret the things we didn’t do.
Philip Rosenthal

Men for the sake of getting a living forget to live.
Margaret Fuller
You can have anything you want, but not everything. If it was really important to spend an afternoon at my daughter’s school, I had to think, how was I going to organize my life to do that?

Joyce Meyer
You can’t control injuries, but you can control how hard you work to come back.

Bragging about yourself violates norms of modesty and politeness – and if you were really competent, your work would speak for itself.
Adam Grant

Edgar Winter

Dwane Casey

Michael Trevino
Nothing is work unless you’d rather be doing something else.

Michael Jackson
College is something I’ve always said I wanted to do, but you’re going there to get a piece of paper that says you can get a job, but if I’m already working steadily and doing good work, it makes you question your priorities. Right now, I’m in my own film college: filming a TV show.
Gaten Matarazzo
Being self-made is a state of mind, and once you put that mentality to work, your success will come.

Harvey Mackay
I may sometimes be willing to teach for nothing, but if paid at all, I shall never do a man’s work for less than a man’s pay.
Clara Barton
Archimedes was my ideal. I admired the works of artists, but to my mind, they were only shadows and semblances. The inventor, I thought, gives to the world creations which are palpable, which live and work.
Nikola Tesla
I am not an optimist. I’m a very serious possibilist. It’s a new category where we take emotion apart and we just work analytically with the world.
Hans Rosling
I am a great believer in luck, and I find the harder I work the more I have of it.
Stephen Leacock
Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work, driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for, in order to get to a job that you need so you can pay for the clothes, car and the house that you leave empty all day in order to afford to live in it.
Ellen Goodman
Through selfless work, love of God grows in the heart. Then through his grace one realize him in course of time. God can be seen. One can talk to him as I am talking to you.
Ramakrishna
Given the scale of trauma caused by the genocide, Rwanda has indicated that however thin the hope of a community can be, a hero always emerges. Although no one can dare claim that it is now a perfect state, and that no more work is needed, Rwanda has risen from the ashes as a model or truth and reconciliation.
Wole Soyinka
Being a chef would be too much hard work.
Sophie Ellis-Bextor
Any artist, the work you do, if it’s a painting or if it’s a performance, you hope it translates to a common denominator with the people that they see something in their own life in there. Or they see something in somebody else’s life. That’s what’s fun about sharing art.

Managers in all too many American companies do not achieve the desired results because nobody makes them do it.
Harold S. Geneen

William J. Clinton
Change can be frightening, and the temptation is often to resist it. But change almost always provides opportunities – to learn new things, to rethink tired processes, and to improve the way we work.
Klaus Schwab
Work is love made visible. And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy.

Reba McEntire
The expectations of life depend upon diligence; the mechanic that would perfect his work must first sharpen his tools.
Confucius
Don’t think in the morning. That’s a big mistake that people make. They wake up in the morning and they start thinking. Don’t think. Just execute the plan. The plan is the alarm clock goes off, you get up, you go work out. Get some.
Jocko Willink
With artificial intelligence, we are summoning the demon. You know all those stories where there’s the guy with the pentagram and the holy water, and he’s like, yeah, he’s sure he can control the demon? Doesn’t work out.
Elon Musk
I believe you make your day. You make your life. So much of it is all perception, and this is the form that I built for myself. I have to accept it and work within those compounds, and it’s up to me.

Shakira
Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work.

Marina Abramovic
It is an immutable law in business that words are words, explanations are explanations, promises are promises-but only performance is reality.
Harold S. Geneen
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.
Tom Welling
If the vegan diet doesn’t work out for you, at least you can do something for animals – whether that’s the way you eat or the way you dress, everything helps, really.

Simon Mainwaring
A leader is best when people barely know he exists, when his work is done, his aim fulfilled, they will say: we did it ourselves.

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.

Life wasn’t easy growing up; it was frustrating. If I had been a better reader, then that would have come easily, sports would have come easily, everything would have come easily, and I never would have realized that the way you get ahead in life is hard work.
Caitlyn Jenner
If you’re not willing to put in the hard work, to endure and fail, there’s no point. You win only if you’re willing to do whatever it takes.

Lisa Leslie
Everyone wants to be safe. Well, I got news for you: You can’t be safe. Life’s not safe. Your work isn’t safe. When you leave the house, it isn’t safe. The air you breathe isn’t going to be safe, not for very long. That’s why you have to enjoy the moment.

Charles Mackay
Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.

Vaclav Havel
Plan your work for today and every day, then work your plan.

Henri Frederic Amiel
I need to celebrate life because I’m in a good spot, I work hard, and I am happy with who I am and happy with what I do for a living, and sometimes I just focus and overwhelm myself so much with the fights and getting better, that I just need to slow it down and enjoy life and enjoy training.

Instead of being critical of people in authority over you and envious of their position, be happy you’re not responsible for everything they have to do. Instead of piling on complaints, thank them for what they do. Overwhelm them with encouragement and appreciation!
Joyce Meyer
Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers. It may not be difficult to store up in the mind a vast quantity of facts within a comparatively short time, but the ability to form judgments requires the severe discipline of hard work and the tempering heat of experience and maturity.

Jamie Campbell Bower
Miracles sometimes occur, but one has to work terribly hard for them.

There are one hundred men seeking security to one able man who is willing to risk his fortune.
J. Paul Getty
Labor gives birth to ideas.

Aristotle
A man’s face is his autobiography. A woman’s face is her work of fiction.

W. E. B. Du Bois
I’ve worked with a lot of gay and lesbian organizations. I sit on the board of the Empire State Pride Agenda. I’ve also done a lot of work for Broadway Care/Equity Fights AIDS.

Kenneth Koch
No person who is enthusiastic about his work has anything to fear from life.

Ezra Koenig
I have found in work that you only get back what you put into it, but it does come back gift-wrapped.
Joyce Brothers
In England, an inventor is regarded almost as a crazy man, and in too many instances, invention ends in disappointment and poverty.

Oscar Wilde
Create like a god, command like a king, work like a slave.
Constantin Brancusi
I did work in a strip club, but I didn’t strip. I danced, and I became very popular.

Michelangelo

It’s very important to like the people you work with. Otherwise, your job is going to be quite miserable.
Elon Musk
Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom. A man can’t ride you unless your back is bent.

Leonardo da Vinci
The harder you work, the harder it is to surrender.
