To be a champion, I think you have to see the big picture. It’s not about winning and losing; it’s about every day hard work and about thriving on a challenge. It’s about embracing the pain that you’ll experience at the end of a race and not being afraid. I think people think too hard and get afraid of a certain challenge.

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.

# Phillip Sweet

Stay true to yourself, yet always be open to learn. Work hard, and never give up on your dreams, even when nobody else believes they can come true but you. These are not cliches but real tools you need no matter what you do in life to stay focused on your path.

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.

#John Ruskin

When love and skill work together, expect a masterpiece.

# Erin Cummings

At the end of the day, you are solely responsible for your success and your failure.

No one really sees pro athletes behind the scenes. They don’t know how hard they work. They don’t see how you work on the basics. They couldn’t possibly know. You wouldn’t think that someone who hits like Alex Rodriguez needs to use a tee every day. But that’s how he stayed on top of it.

# Kimbal Mus

I did a business in a box called College Pro Painters. They taught you how to paint houses, how to hire and fire, how to sell, how to deal with customers. You got a one-year franchise.

Life is a series of baby steps along the way and if you add up these tiny little steps you take toward your goal, whatever it is, whether it’s giving up something, a terrible addiction or trying to work your way through an illness. When you total up those baby steps you’d be amazed over the course of 10 years, the strides you’ve taken.

Let the future tell the truth, and evaluate each one according to his work and accomplishments. The present is theirs; the future, for which I have really worked, is mine.

# Xzibit

I’m doing things that feel good to my soul. I’ve had plenty opportunity to do other things, but it didn’t feel right, and it wasn’t right. And if it feels like work, then it’s work.

# Andrei Tarkovsky

An artist never works under ideal conditions. If they existed, his work wouldn’t exist, for the artist doesn’t live in a vacuum. Some sort of pressure must exist.

Well, thing is, after they cancelled ‘Zen’, I didn’t work for eight months. And in that case, it was not my choice. After I’ve done something that I’m really proud of and I think changes the way I’m perceived, the immediate reaction is: nothing.

# Jocko Willink

Creativity itself doesn’t care at all about results – the only thing it craves is the process. Learn to love the process and let whatever happens next happen, without fussing too much about it. Work like a monk, or a mule, or some other representative metaphor for diligence. Love the work. Destiny will do what it wants with you, regardless.

# Patrick Lencioni

The kind of people that all teams need are people who are humble, hungry, and smart: humble being little ego, focusing more on their teammates than on themselves.

I faced a number of challenges whilst I built Biocon. Initially, I had credibility challenges where I couldn’t get banks to fund me; I couldn’t recruit people to work for a woman boss. Even in the businesses where I had to procure raw materials, they didn’t want to deal with women.

I used to help my grandfather on the farm, driving tractors, raising crops and animals. I used to feed some of the baby cows and pigs, and I had to be no older than 7 or 8.

# Iain Duncan Smith

Luck is great, but most of life is hard work.

# Florence Pugh

I wanted to go to drama school, but when I got the part in ‘Falling,’ I got an agent, so it seemed a good idea to work. I always did a lot of singing and dancing, so I am glad it worked out that way. I would like to study stage acting at some point, though.

One measure of your success will be the degree to which you build up others who work with you. While building up others, you will build up yourself.

# Tom Brady

I always try to do as much as I can do. I’m never a person that does not enough, because I’d regret not doing enough and think I probably could have done more. I probably go too far and have to reel myself back in, which works in some things, and other things it doesn’t work.

# Bruce Lipton

Our thoughts are mainly controlled by our subconscious, which is largely formed before the age of 6, and you cannot change the subconscious mind by just thinking about it.

Whereas most technologies tend to automate workers on the periphery doing menial tasks, blockchains automate away the center. Instead of putting the taxi driver out of a job, blockchain puts Uber out of a job and lets the taxi drivers work with the customer directly.

I am humbled and excited by new opportunities for me to support and share the amazing work NASA is doing to help us travel farther into the solar system and work with the next generation of science and technology leaders.

# Ali Krieger

You can control two things: your work ethic and your attitude about anything.

# Arthur Conan Doyle

My mind rebels at stagnation. Give me problems, give me work, give me the most abstruse cryptogram, or the most intricate analysis, and I am in my own proper atmosphere. But I abhor the dull routine of existence. I crave for mental exaltation.

# Sheryl Sandberg

We can each define ambition and progress for ourselves. The goal is to work toward a world where expectations are not set by the stereotypes that hold us back, but by our personal passion, talents and interests.

# Daron Malakian

I am depressed sometimes, but it’s not what keeps me at home or focused on work.

# Rei Kawakubo

I work in three shades of black.

# William Albert Allard

Words and pictures can work together to communicate more powerfully than either alone.

# Kimberle Williams Crenshaw

Intersectionality draws attention to invisibilities that exist in feminism, in anti-racism, in class politics, so, obviously, it takes a lot of work to consistently challenge ourselves to be attentive to aspects of power that we don’t ourselves experience.

# Natalie Massenet

When you love something, it doesn’t feel like work.

# Gregor Mendel

My scientific studies have afforded me great gratification; and I am convinced that it will not be long before the whole world acknowledges the results of my work.

# Morgan Wootten

It’s often been said that you learn more from losing than you do from winning. I think, if you’re wise, you learn from both. You learn a lot from a loss. You learn what is it that we’re not doing to get to where we want to go. It really gets your attention and it really motivates the work ethic of your team when you’re not doing well.

# Richard Branson

Overcoming fear is the first step to success for entrepreneurs. The winners all exemplify that, and the hard work and commitment they have shown underlines what is needed to set up a business.

He is one of the finest and kindest human beings I have come across. When you meet him, you will understand why he is the Jackie Chan. It’s not just for his work but also the kind of person he is.

# Roseanne Barr

As a housewife, I feel that if the kids are still alive when my husband gets home from work, then hey, I’ve done my job.

# Victoria Osteen

When God created you, He went to great lengths to make you exactly the way He wanted you to be. You are His ultimate work of art.

# Jose Mujica

Poor people are those who only work to try to keep an expensive lifestyle and always want more and more.

# Maurizio Cattelan

Every morning, we choose between milk or tea or coffee. Usually, I know what I like, but I don’t rule out changing my idea sometimes. The editing process is one of the most important parts in everyday life. The same is with my work: mistakes are part of the decision-making process.

# Alex Spanos

The best way to learn is by doing. The only way to build a strong work ethic is getting your hands dirty.

I’m confident to say that if you want to grow in a profession, consistency is the key… I’m strict about my work goals and training.

# Mark Warner

My success was due to good luck, hard work, and support and advice from friends and mentors. But most importantly, it depended on me to keep trying after I had failed.

# Patrick Lencioni

Teamwork requires some sacrifice up front; people who work as a team have to put the collective needs of the group ahead of their individual interests.

# Daisaku Ikeda

Women are, in my view, natural peacemakers. As givers and nurturers of life, through their focus on human relationships and their engagement with the demanding work of raising children and protecting family life, they develop a deep sense of empathy that cuts through to underlying human realities.

# Jessie Pavelka

My journey through life has led me through both light and dark places, and it’s because of those experiences that I have learned how to work through my character defects and to help others do the same.

# Jean Piaget

Play is the work of childhood.

# James Corden

I love hard work. ‘One Man, Two Guvnors’ was so physically tiring I ached all the time, but I took a massive amount of pride in the fact that I only ever missed two shows.

# Candace Parker

Today I know that there is still work to be done, but along the way my I am achieving my dreams.

# Afrika Bambaataa

The Universal Zulu Nation stands to acknowledge wisdom, understanding, freedom, justice, and equality, peace, unity, love, and having fun, work, overcoming the negative through the positive, science, mathematics, faith, facts, and the wonders of God, whether we call him Allah, Jehovah, Yahweh, or Jah.

# Mike Rowe

Work ethic is important because, unlike intelligence, athleticism, charisma, or any other natural attribute, it’s a choice.

# Philip Seymour Hoffman

There are a lot of things going on with my life right now that don’t just have to do with career. So I have a hard time making decisions about work. That’s really a luxury problem.

# Norman Rockwell

Some people have been kind enough to call me a fine artist. I’ve always called myself an illustrator. I’m not sure what the difference is. All I know is that whatever type of work I do, I try to give it my very best. Art has been my life.

# Vivien Leigh

Life is too short to work so hard.

# Said Musa

We have much work ahead, to stand still.

# Fidel Castro

The equal right of all citizens to health, education, work, food, security, culture, science, and wellbeing – that is, the same rights we proclaimed when we began our struggle, in addition to those which emerge from our dreams of justice and equality for all inhabitants of our world – is what I wish for all.

# Michael Jordan

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.

# Simon Mainwaring

Creating a better world requires teamwork, partnerships, and collaboration, as we need an entire army of companies to work together to build a better world within the next few decades. This means corporations must embrace the benefits of cooperating with one another.

# Mustafa Kemal Ataturk

Everything we see in the world is the creative work of women.

I am grateful for the opportunities I have been given to participate in that work as a representative of my country, Canada, whose people have, I think, shown their devotion to peace.

# William Moulton Marston

Realize what you really want. It stops you from chasing butterflies and puts you to work digging gold.

Work is about more than making a living, as vital as that is. It’s fundamental to human dignity, to our sense of self-worth as useful, independent, free people.

# Lionel Messi

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.

# Madam C. J. Walker

If I have accomplished anything in life, it is because I have been willing to work hard.

# Burning Spear

When people see a legend, they call it a legend. But to be a legend, it’s a lot of hard work and patience. You can’t play for five or ten years and be a legend. It takes longer than that.

# Michael Moore

Capitalism is an organized system to guarantee that greed becomes the primary force of our economic system and allows the few at the top to get very wealthy and has the rest of us riding around thinking we can be that way, too – if we just work hard enough, sell enough Tupperware and Amway products, we can get a pink Cadillac.

# Robert Greene

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.

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

I’m impressed with the people from Chicago. Hollywood is hype, New York is talk, Chicago is work.

Unemployment is a great tragedy. The man who goes about hopelessly seeking work in order to earn bread for his children is a living reproach to civilization.

# Barack Obama

Take off your bedroom slippers. Put on your marching shoes,’ he said, his voice rising as applause and cheers mounted. ‘Shake it off. Stop complainin’. Stop grumblin’. Stop cryin’. We are going to press on. We have work to do.

Sometimes it takes dealing with a disability – the trauma, the relearning, the months of rehabilitation therapy – to uncover our true abilities and how we can put them to work for us in ways we may have never imagined.

# Saquon Barkley

Nothing is given to you. Everything is earned. You have to have that mindset that you have to work every single day. Learn every single day.

# Diane von Furstenberg

The most important relationship you have in life is the one you have with yourself. And then after that, I’d say once you have that, it may be hard work, but you can actually design your life.

# Mel Robbins

Life is about growth and exploration, not achieving a fixed state of balance. You have a very limited time on earth to experience all that you can. Figuring out how to squeeze the most out of your family, work, and spirituality is your life’s purpose. Go do it.

# Gina Rodriguez

I try to keep in mind that it’s a long journey. It’s not a race. It’s about staying focused, continuing to do good work, make my family and community proud; that’s all I really want to do… and pay my bills.

# Bill Pascrell

Today a minimum wage earner has to work a day and a half just to pay for a full tank of gas. That is simply shameful.

I’ve learned that anything in life worth having comes from patience and hard work.

# Rob Dyrdek

Anything is possible if you’re willing to work for it.

# Nipsey Hussle

It sounds simple telling people to work hard and never quit, but to really execute and demonstrate those principles takes discipline and faith. Those are the two factors that I believe separate the good from the great, the successes from the failures.

# Tom Lehman

To have faith doesn’t mean you get any less frustrated when you don’t do your best, but you know that it’s not life and death. Take what you’re given, and when you continue to work hard, you will see results. That will give you the confidence you need to keep going.

#Ben Quayle

Don’t try to be somebody you’re not because it doesn’t work. If you try to be this perfect person or perfect persona of what you think that somebody should be when they’re involved in public office, it’s just not going to work. Just be yourself, stay true to your core values, and really just stay abreast of the issues.

# Laurence Olivier

I don’t know what is better than the work that is given to the actor – to teach the human heart the knowledge of itself.

Eat all the junk food you want – as long as you cook it yourself. That way, it’ll be less junky, and you won’t eat it every day because it’s a lot of work.

# Luciana Berger

Stress is part of life. It is something we all experience from time to time. Sometimes it reflects our own busy lifestyles or key moments such as exams, moving house, organising an event, or coping with a bereavement. Often it is associated with work: meeting a deadline, dealing with difficult people, or meeting stretching targets.

# Henry Ford

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

# Michelangelo

The true work of art is but a shadow of the divine perfection.

# John Ruskin

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.

When you go all over the world for work, your dream vacation is your bedroom.

# Pete Docte

Work hard! In the end, passion and hard work beats out natural talent.

Thank God for the Internet. Thank God for these amazing portals that are there. For instance, Netflix and Amazon. The kind of content the audience has got to see has gone up drastically, and because of this, the quality of work will go up, too.

# Michael Flatley

I feel like a tiger right now. There’s nothing impossible if you get up and work for it.

# David S. Rose

The entrepreneurial life is one of challenge, work, dedication, perseverance, exhilaration, agony, accomplishment, failure, sacrifice, control, powerlessness… but ultimately, extraordinary satisfaction.

# Robert Kennedy

Few will have the greatness to bend history itself; but each of us can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total; of all those acts will be written the history of this generation.

Live and work but do not forget to play, to have fun in life and really enjoy it.

# Drew Brees

You can accomplish anything in life if you are willing to work for it.

# A. P. J. Abdul Kalam

Let me define a leader. He must have vision and passion and not be afraid of any problem. Instead, he should know how to defeat it. Most importantly, he must work with integrity.

# John Lewis

We all live in the same house, we all must be part of the effort to hold down our little house. When you see something that is not right, not fair, not just… do something about it. Say something. Have the courage. Have the backbone. Get in the way. Walk with the wind. It’s all going to work out.

# Pope Francis

Together with a culture of work, there must be a culture of leisure as gratification. To put it another way: people who work must take the time to relax, to be with their families, to enjoy themselves, read, listen to music, play a sport.

# Henry J. Kaiser

Problems are only opportunities in work clothes.

# J. J. Watt

If you don’t have that vision for the end goal, you have no clue where you’re going, and you’re going to work very hard to go nowhere.

# Tyler Perry

Developing a good work ethic is key. Apply yourself at whatever you do, whether you’re a janitor or taking your first summer job, because that work ethic will be reflected in everything you do in life.

# Steve Jobs

That’s been one of my mantras – focus and simplicity. Simple can be harder than complex: You have to work hard to get your thinking clean to make it simple. But it’s worth it in the end because once you get there, you can move mountains.

# Ralph Marston

Rest when you’re weary. Refresh and renew yourself, your body, your mind, your spirit. Then get back to work.

# Nana Patekar

We should judge by talent and work not by community or caste.

# Lori Lightfoot

Let’s stand together, stick together, and work together for justice of every description. Racial justice. Gender justice. Immigrant justice. Economic justice. Environmental justice.

# Irvin D. Yalom

I do not like to work with patients who are in love. Perhaps it is because of envy – I, too, crave enchantment. Perhaps it is because love and psychotherapy are fundamentally incompatible. The good therapist fights darkness and seeks illumination, while romantic love is sustained by mystery and crumbles upon inspection.

# Marc Jacobs

Design is a series of creative choices – it’s a collaborative effort, an evolutionary process. You choose your fabrics depending upon what you want to say, then you work with mills to get those fabrics. Through the process, you realize what you want it to be.

# Margaret Thatcher

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

# Steve Carell

I think in most relationships that have problems, there’s fault on both sides. And in order for it to work, there has to be some common ground that’s shared. And it’s not just one person making amends.

# Jean-Francois Lyotard

A work can become modern only if it is first postmodern. Postmodernism thus understood is not modernism at its end but in the nascent state, and this state is constant.

# Peter Thiel

It’s good to test yourself and develop your talents and ambitions as fully as you can and achieve greater success; but I think success is the feeling you get from a job well done, and the key thing is to do the work.

# David Niven

Keep the circus going inside you, keep it going, don’t take anything too seriously, it’ll all work out in the end.

# Guler Sabanci

I am pleased that my work has been recognized, and I hope to be a role model.

# Tim Burton

When I was growing up, Dr. Seuss was really my favorite. There was something about the lyrical nature and the simplicity of his work that really hit me.

# Bruce Lee

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.

# Salman Khan

The older you get, the better you have to look, the higher you have to kick, the harder you have to work.

# Michio Kaku

The job market of the future will consist of those jobs that robots cannot perform. Our blue-collar work is pattern recognition, making sense of what you see. Gardeners will still have jobs because every garden is different. The same goes for construction workers. The losers are white-collar workers, low-level accountants, brokers, and agents.

# Kirsten Dunst

It’s always nice when people appreciate your work because it means you’ve affected them, which is great. And so that feels good.

# Jeremy Irons

No, I don’t believe in hard work. If something is hard, leave it. Let it come to you. Let it happen.

If you want peace work for justice.

# Randy Pausch

Never lose the childlike wonder. Show gratitude… Don’t complain; just work harder… Never give up.

Others may recognise their world in ‘Eat Sleep Work Repeat’. This podcast is the side project of Bruce Daisley, who works at Twitter. It consists of him talking to experts about what makes us happy at work and why.

# Rakul Preet Singh

I believe in hard work, not luck factor. The best efforts will reap the best fruits. Nobody can take all the credit. We don’t even talk about the efforts of the director, the writers, other technicians, etc. They all together take a film to another level.

# Sara Sampaio

You can achieve anything you put your mind and hard work to.

With Malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation’s wounds.

# Edinson Cavani

Football is about sacrifice, dedication, a lot of work, and friendship off the pitch.

# Martin Seligman

# Jose Eduardo dos Santos

There is no magic wand that can resolve our problems. The solution rests with our work and discipline.

# Anne Donovan

I am grateful to have had the opportunity to play for and work under the best, Pat Summitt.

# Shannon Sharpe

A lot of people mistake habit for hard work. Doing something over and over again is not working hard.

# Klaus Schwab

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.

# Earl Nightingale

Our environment, the world in which we live and work, is a mirror of our attitudes and expectations.

# Victoria Beckham

I believe you can achieve anything if you work hard enough to get it.

# Tom Hanks

My TV show had been cancelled; nothing else had gone anywhere; some alliances I had made petered out and nothing came of them and I was looking at a long, long year ahead of me in which there was no work on the horizon, the phone wasn’t ringing. I had two kids, one of them a brand-new baby, and I didn’t know if I would be able to keep my house.

# Hero Fiennes-Tiffin

If you’re good, you’ll get work. And if I’ve got food in my fridge and clothes on my back, I’ll be happy.

# Thomas Sowell

The most fundamental fact about the ideas of the political left is that they do not work. Therefore we should not be surprised to find the left concentrated in institutions where ideas do not have to work in order to survive.

# Carli Lloyd

If you have a dream, it’s definitely achievable through hard work, through dedication, sacrifice, everything.

# Derek Jeter

When you put a lot of hard work into one goal and you achieve it, that’s a really good feeling.

# Elbert Hubbard

Do your work with your whole heart, and you will succeed – there’s so little competition.

# George Carlin

Some people see things that are and ask, Why? Some people dream of things that never were and ask, Why not? Some people have to go to work and don’t have time for all that.

# Óscar Arias

Peace is a never ending process… It cannot ignore our differences or overlook our common interests. It requires us to work and live together.

# Paul Coffey

Nobody’s a natural. You work hard to get good and then work to get better. It’s hard to stay on top.

# Ma Long

Glory is attained from hard work, step by step.

# Narendra Modi

Federalism is no longer the fault line of Centre-State relations but the definition of a new partnership of Team India. Citizens now have the ease of trust, not the burden of proof and process. Businesses find an environment that is open and easy to work in.

# Theodor W. Adorno

Work while you work, play while you play – this is a basic rule of repressive self-discipline.

# Santan Dave

Just be thankful for what you have in the moment, but most importantly, work hard. The things that you work hard on have a lot of impact.

# Michael Phelps

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.

# Jeff Bezo

It’s not an experiment if you know it’s going to work. s

# Frederick W. Taylor

Hardly a competent workman can be found who does not devote a considerable amount of time to studying just how slowly he can work and still convince his employer that he is going at a good pace.

# Leonardo da Vinci

A beautiful body perishes, but a work of art dies not.

# Francis of Assisi

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

# Pete Hoekstra

Hard work, years of sacrifice, and dedication are necessary to succeed in the real world. Snowden’s most notable accomplishment was lying about his military service, his experience, and education to procure a job with the NSA in the first place.

# Ken Griffey Jr.

Just because I made it look easy doesn’t mean that it was and you don’t work hard and become a Hall of Famer without working day in and day out.

# Michael Johnson

Life is often compared to a marathon, but I think it is more like being a sprinter; long stretches of hard work punctuated by brief moments in which we are given the opportunity to perform at our best.

# Tim Tebow

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.

# Chuck Jones

A lion’s work hours are only when he’s hungry; once he’s satisfied, the predator and prey live peacefully together.

# Simon Sinek

If you hire people just because they can do a job, they’ll work for your money. But if you hire people who believe what you believe, they’ll work for you with blood, sweat, and tears.

# Christie Brinkley

Adopting a really positive attitude can work wonders to adding years to your life, a spring to your step, a sparkle to your eye, and all of that.

The search for justice and security, the struggle for equality of opportunity, the quest for tolerance and harmony, the pursuit of human dignity – these are moral imperatives which we must work towards and think about on a daily basis.

# Tim Allen

Women now have choices. They can be married, not married, have a job, not have a job, be married with children, unmarried with children. Men have the same choice we’ve always had: work, or prison.

Anyone can accomplish anything and rise to the challenge as long as they are willing to work with others, to let go of the personal agenda, to reach a higher goal, and to do what is right for the common good.

# Charles Schwab

I have yet to find the man, however exalted his station, who did not do better work and put forth greater effort under a spirit of approval than under a spirit of criticism.

# Mara Brock Akil

If you want something, work hard for it, go after it. I can’t worry about all the ‘no’s, because I believe there’s a yes, and I’ve been very fortunate to find those in my career and made the most of those opportunities.

# Leopold Kronecker

God made the integers; all else is the work of man.

# William Osler

# Robert Kiyosaki

Financial freedom is available to those who learn about it and work for it.

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.

The loudest voice in the room doesn’t always work. In fact, it usually grates to the point – to the point that when you really need to be loud, nobody listens.

# Kyla Reid

Dreams do come true if you work hard and you get your head down.

# Janet Yellen

Productivity depends on many factors, including our workforce’s knowledge and skills and the quantity and quality of the capital, technology, and infrastructure that they have to work with.

# Jose Rizal

I do not write for this generation. I am writing for other ages. If this could read me, they would burn my books, the work of my whole life. On the other hand, the generation which interprets these writings will be an educated generation; they will understand me and say: ‘Not all were asleep in the nighttime of our grandparents.’

# Tarana Burke

If we don’t center the voices of marginalized people, we’re doing the wrong work.

# Amy Morin

Sticking to good habits can be hard work, and mistakes are part of the process. Don’t declare failure simply because you messed up or because you’re having trouble reaching your goals. Instead, use your mistakes as opportunities to grow stronger and become better.

# Laurence J. Peter

Early to bed, early to rise, work like hell, and advertise.

# Sheri L. Dew

Neither man nor woman is perfect or complete without the other. Thus, no marriage or family, no ward or stake is likely to reach its full potential until husbands and wives, mothers and fathers, men and women work together in unity of purpose, respecting and relying upon each other’s strengths.

# Sidney Poitier

I had chosen to use my work as a reflection of my values.

# Jean Chatzky

While you’re going through this process of trying to find the satisfaction in your work, pretend you feel satisfied. Tell yourself you had a good day. Walk through the corridors with a smile rather than a scowl. Your positive energy will radiate. If you act like you’re having fun, you’ll find you are having fun.

# Wilt Chamberlain

I believe that good things come to those who work.

# Jessica Savitch

For every two minutes of glamour, there are eight hours of hard work.

# Brad Marchand

Practice makes perfect and if you practice battling and competing and working hard, then that will transfer over in a game. If you practice just kind of floating around out there in practice, you know that’s going to transfer over, too. So I think the harder you work and the more you compete, then that’s how you’re going to play in a game.

# Johnny Ball

Discrimination due to age is one of the great tragedies of modern life. The desire to work and be useful is what makes life worth living, and to be told your efforts are not needed because you are the wrong age is a crime.

# Katie Ledecky

I would encourage you to set really high goals. Set goals that, when you set them, you think they’re impossible. But then every day you can work towards them, and anything is possible, so keep working hard and follow your dreams.

# Katy Perry

I get a lot of the ideas when I’m resting – either when I’m meditating or getting some kind of work done on my back, like physical therapy or acupuncture. That’s where I get my best ideas, maybe because I’m balancing my body.

# Stephen Covey

Your most important work is always ahead of you, never behind you.

You’ve just got to have to put the work in. Put work first. Put the hours in and the time in, and do your job. And when you get a little time off, you can go out and have a little fun. But you have to make sure you get done what you need to get done first off.

# Chaim Weizmann

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

Mercedes does beautiful work, absolutely.

# Steve Jobs

It’s not the tools that you have faith in – tools are just tools. They work, or they don’t work. It’s people you have faith in or not. Yeah, sure, I’m still optimistic I mean, I get pessimistic sometimes but not for long.

# Robert Kraft

A lot of people have their big dreams and get knocked down and don’t have things go their way. And you never give up hope, and you really just hold on to it. Hard work and perserverance. You just keep getting up and getting up, and then you get that breakthrough.

# Darren Till

I’m not scared of anyone. I don’t care whether you are a jiu-jitsu fighter or a wrestler or a stand-up fighter: I want to put myself against you, and I want to see who is better. And if you are the guy that is going to beat me, I’m going to take that loss like a man and go back, and I’ll work on me self. That’s how I look at fighting.

# Nonito Donaire

The motivation is in my heart to work toward my goals and my dreams.

# Lizzo

I work on myself daily to be a better person. When I react in a negative way to somebody, I sit back and think about why I did it, so I’m always working on myself, and my music is the same.

# Blake Griffin

Sometimes you just have to calm down a little bit and let the system work itself.

# Gordon B. Hinckley

Some of our finest work comes through service to others.

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

# Madonna Ciccone

I am my own experiment. I am my own work of art.

# Jane Lynch

I would love to do the therapist on ‘Two and a Half Men’ again or just work with Charlie Sheen.

# Dhanush

I come from a very humble background. My father had to work really hard to become an assistant director. For a large part of his youth, he worked in a mill and took up odd jobs to make ends meet. We lived in a small room and could only afford a meal a day.

# Derrick Henry

You control your own destiny. You go out there and work hard and show people that you come to work and earn your respect. All you can control is how you go out there and perform every day.

# Rudolf Diesel

The automobile engine will come, and then I will consider my life’s work complete.

# Hugh Masekela

Whatever you go into, you have to go in there to be the best. There’s no formulas. It’s all about passion and honesty and hard work. It might look glamorous, but it takes a lot of hard work. The blessing with the arts is that you can do it forever.

# Steven Wilson

Owning vinyl is like having a beautiful painting hanging in your living room. It’s something you can hold, pore over the lyrics, and immerse yourself in the art work.

# Lou Holtz

Winners embrace hard work. They love the discipline of it, the trade-off they’re making to win. Losers, on the other hand, see it as punishment. And that’s the difference.

# Big Freedia

Everyone has a butt. No matter what size it is, you can work it.

# Reba McEntire

Be different, stand out, and work your butt off.

# Sam Walton

If you love your work, you’ll be out there every day trying to do it the best you possibly can, and pretty soon everybody around will catch the passion from you – like a fever.

I think that passion is the secret ingredient that drives hard work and excellence. My passion is to serve the public: to be in the arena of public policy, to have the opportunity to solve problems for our country, to be in a position where I can make a difference.

# Riteish Deshmukh

If you are sincere and true to your work, you will be respected. And for me, respect is power.

# Percy Sledge

I had the great opportunity to work with some of the greatest artists – the Beach Boys, the Temptations, the Four Tops. Otis Redding. Wilson Pickett. Stevie Wonder. So many great singers. And don’t forget Clarence Carter!

# Simon Sinek

A leader’s job is not to do the work for others, it’s to help others figure out how to do it themselves, to get things done, and to succeed beyond what they thought possible.

# Vaclav Havel

Hope is a state of mind, not of the world. Hope, in this deep and powerful sense, is not the same as joy that things are going well, or willingness to invest in enterprises that are obviously heading for success, but rather an ability to work for something because it is good.

# Ralph Hasenhuttl

To work for the team and for the success of the team. That is more important than one ego.

# Daniel Burnham

Make big plans; aim high in hope and work, remembering that a noble, logical diagram once recorded will not die, but long after we are gone be a living thing, asserting itself with ever-growing insistence.

# Marina Abramovic

Your ego can become an obstacle to your work. If you start believing in your greatness, it is the death of your creativity.

# Eleanor Roosevelt

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.

# Janet Yellen

Although we work through financial markets, our goal is to help Main Street, not Wall Street.

# Kim Kardashian

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.

# Russell Crowe

The important thing to me is that I’m not driven by people’s praise and I’m not slowed down by people’s criticism. I’m just trying to work at the highest level I can.

# Sharan Burrow

We all need to work together, because there are no jobs on a dead planet; there is no equity without rights to decent work and social protection, no social justice without a shift in governance and ambition, and, ultimately, no peace for the peoples of the world without the guarantees of sustainability.

# Maria Montessori

Establishing lasting peace is the work of education; all politics can do is keep us out of war.

# Myles Munroe

Prayer is our invitation to God to intervene in the affairs of earth. It is our request for Him to work His ways in this world.

# Novalis

The artist belongs to his work, not the work to the artist.

# John Williams

To continue to work, to continue to love what you do, is certainly a contributing element to one’s longevity and health.

# A. P. J. Abdul Kalam

My message, especially to young people is to have courage to think differently, courage to invent, to travel the unexplored path, courage to discover the impossible and to conquer the problems and succeed. These are great qualities that they must work towards. This is my message to the young people.

# Mickalene Thomas

I define my work as a feminist act and a political act because I’m black and a woman. You don’t necessarily have to claim that, but the act of making art itself is a political and feminist act when you’re a woman.

# John Van Hamersveld

I look at graphic design as communication, meaning that the work has to have a vibe to connect to the viewer or perceiver. I make a black and white drawing and then add color digitally, bringing in a contemporary pattern to the composition to create a vibrance.

# Laura Lang

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? How could I become more efficient? I always tried to put my priorities on the table, personal and professional, and work around them.

# Margaret J. Wheatley

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.

# Mark Brand

Critique, feedback, reaction to one’s work or the way they have presented it, regardless of intention, is a gift.

# Sherry Turkle

I am a partisan for conversation. To make room for it, I see some first, deliberate steps. At home, we can create sacred spaces: the kitchen, the dining room. We can make our cars ‘device-free zones.’ We can demonstrate the value of conversation to our children. And we can do the same thing at work.

# David Brainerd

We should always look upon ourselves as God’s servants, placed in God’s world, to do his work; and accordingly labour faithfully for him; not with a design to grow rich and great, but to glorify God, and do all the good we possibly can.

# Randy Johnson

Work hard. And have patience. Because no matter who you are, you’re going to get hurt in your career and you have to be patient to get through the injuries.

# JuJu Smith-Schuster

It all starts off on the field. In any sport, that’s how you catch people’s attention. From there, you kinda show your fans, your following, what kind of person you are and your personality. I let the field work do its work.

# Orlando Bloom

Life sometimes doesn’t work out exactly as we plan or hope for.

# Emraan Hashmi

Just be yourself. Be honest, work towards a goal, and you’ll achieve it.

My dad was a man of integrity who taught me to always do the right thing even when nobody is watching. He ran a trucking company, and watching how he operated his business instilled a drive and work ethic that stuck with me.

#Jeff Bezos

There are two kinds of companies, those that work to try to charge more and those that work to charge less. We will be the second.

# Arthur Schopenhauer

Treat a work of art like a prince. Let it speak to you first.

# Kubra Sait

You can never go wrong when you have a great team to work with.

# Taylor Lautner

Nothing comes without hard work. I’ve been taught that by many people growing up.

# Shelby Steele

Conservatism is the perfect antidote to underdevelopment. Its commitment to individual responsibility, education, hard work, personal initiative, traditional family values and free markets is a universal formula for success in a free society.

# Kim Kardashian

You make mistakes, but I don’t have any regrets. I’m the kind of person who takes responsibility for it and deals with it. I learn from everything I do. I work very hard, I have so many things going on in my life. Get to know me and see who I am.

# George Carlin

Most people work just hard enough not to get fired and get paid just enough money not to quit.

# Roma Downey

I think we all do have a guardian angel. I believe they work through us all the time, when we are thoughtful and good and kind to each other.

# Bobby Kotick

Autonomy leads to empowerment. We work hard to maintain a balance between collaboration and cooperation and independence.

# Diana Ross

It takes a long time to get to be a diva. I mean, you gotta work at it.

# Ajit Pai

Whether it’s police officers, firefighters, first responders, or 911 dispatchers, many dedicated Americans work long hours, and often in difficult conditions, to make sure that when someone’s in need, they can help.

# Johnny Lever

Talent is given by God but you should respect it by doing good work.

# John Burroughs

For anything worth having one must pay the price; and the price is always work, patience, love, self-sacrifice – no paper currency, no promises to pay, but the gold of real service.

Hard work keeps the wrinkles out of the mind and spirit.

# Robert Griffin III

Hard work pays off – hard work beats talent any day, but if you’re talented and work hard, it’s hard to be beat.

I feel I am lucky. I am grateful for this life that God has given me. I am happy, as I am getting to do work that I want to do and enjoy doing it.

The secret of joy in work is contained in one word – excellence. To know how to do something well is to enjoy it.

# Luther Campbell

Goodness and hard work are rewarded with respect.

# Lili Reinhart

I’m not grateful for depression, but it honestly made me work harder and gave me the drive that I have to succeed and to make it work.

# Marcus Buckingham

We dream of having a clean house – but who dreams of actually doing the cleaning? We don’t have to dream about doing the work, because doing the work is always within our grasp; the dream, in this sense, is to attain the goal without the work.

# Jeff Rich

Life is a work in progress.

# Steve Prefontaine

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.

# Dove Cameron

Laziness in my biggest pet peeve of all time. Get up, make a plan, do the work, and love yourself, people!

# Edmund Burke

Never despair, but if you do, work on in despair.

# Joseph Mawle

I grew up in a farming family. I hated cleaning out the chickens but loved hatching them and feeding the new born sheep. The smell of hot milk still has a special resonance for me. Harvest was back-breaking work, though… Where do you think Jesus got his biceps from?

# Robert Kiyosaki

Assets put money in your pocket, whether you work or not, and liabilities take money from your pocket.

# Gabrielle Carteris

Equal pay for equal work is a fundamental concept of labor agreements.

# Sushant Singh Rajput

My strength would be my honesty and my passion towards my work.

# Ellen G. White

Study and work and work and study will keep in active exercise both the physical and mental. These two, rightly conducted, will not war against each other.

# Priyanka Chopra

I believe destiny and hard work go hand in hand. I was studying to be an engineer when my mom and my brother sent my pictures for the Miss India contest. I didn’t even know about it. If that isn’t destiny, what is?

# Michelle Obama

Our greatness has always come from people who expect nothing and take nothing for granted – folks who work hard for what they have, then reach back and help others after them.

# Marty Meehan

As we celebrate Black History Month we should be grateful for the achievements they made and inspired by their legacies to continue their work.

# Son Ye-jin

I didn’t understand at first why I couldn’t meet a guy for so long. But as time goes by, I understood why actresses usually get married late. I think their hearts for work become bigger and happiness from the work takes the most space in their hearts.

# Winnie Byanyima

A good leader, in my view, should have a clear vision of the future they want and the society they need to build. They must also have a connection with the people who work for them and be able to mobilise their best energies to create teams where people can be most creative and happy.

# Nate Robinson

My dad said, ‘Stay humble, and you gotta work harder than everybody else.’ My mom said, ‘Always be yourself.’ She always told me only God can judge me.

# Angela Davis

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.

# Lillie Langtry

Anyone’s life truly lived consists of work, sunshine, exercise, soap, plenty of fresh air, and a happy contented spirit.

Our fatigue is often caused not by work, but by worry, frustration and resentment.

I just hate losing and that gives you an extra determination to work harder.

# Norman Vincent Peale

Four things for success: work and pray, think and believe.

# Tyler Perry

The Bible says that all things work together for the good of those who love the Lord and are called according to his purpose. I believe that. Because I’ve seen it all work.

# J. Michael Straczynski

Never follow somebody else’s path; it doesn’t work the same way twice for anyone… the path follows you and rolls up behind you as you walk, forcing the next person to find their own way. x

# Tyler Perry

My biggest success is getting over the things that have tried to destroy and take me out of this life. Those are my biggest successes. It has nothing to do with work.

Work hard. Through determination and self-focus and discipline, you can accomplish anything.

# Whitney M. Young

The hardest work in the world is being out of work.

# Kate McKinnon

You’ve gotta believe in yourself, and you just have to work harder at it than you’ve ever worked at anything before in your life. And if you keep doing that and keep believing in yourself, great things do happen.

# Mj Rodriguez

Every single day, I wake up and take a glimpse of where I am now compared to where I was before, and the work that we have all put in to be in this space. I think of that, and being able to express myself through my art and show up and be present – that’s activism, advocacy, and artistry in itself.

# Sam Graves

When we stop running up huge budget deficits and start acting responsibly in Washington, we will provide small-business owners with the certainty they need to put Americans back to work.

# Casey Kasem

Success doesn’t happen in a vacuum. You’re only as good as the people you work with and the people you work for.

# Bill Flores

Imagine having all of your freedoms taken away, being forced to work against your will, and constantly living under the threat of violence – in short, being forced to live as a slave. Sadly, this situation is a reality for millions of children, women, and men each year as part of the global human trafficking industry.

# Marc Anthony

Be quiet, or my wife will take away your first born and make him or her work in one of her sweatshops!

# Ogden Nash

People who work sitting down get paid more than people who work standing up.

If you ever think about me, and you ain’t gonna do no revolutionary act, forget about me. I don’t want myself on your mind if you’re not going to work for the people.

# Maya Angelou

My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return.

# Amy Jackson

It’s not easy, but I’m really enjoying what I am doing. One day I am in Chennai, the other in Mumbai, then in Coimbatore. But I love my job, and I am really passionate about my work.

# Ronald Reagan

It’s true hard work never killed anybody, but I figure, why take the chance?

#Bernie Siegel

Feelings aroused by the touch of someone’s hand, the sound of music, the smell of a flower, a beautiful sunset, a work of art, love, laughter, hope and faith – all work on both the unconscious and the conscious aspects of the self, and they have physiological consequences as well.

# Bernie Sanders

Unemployment insurance, abolishing child labor, the 40-hour work week, collective bargaining, strong banking regulations, deposit insurance, and job programs that put millions of people to work were all described, in one way or another, as ‘socialist.’ Yet, these programs have become the fabric of our nation and the foundation of the middle class.

# Bernie Sandersv

Unemployment insurance, abolishing child labor, the 40-hour work week, collective bargaining, strong banking regulations, deposit insurance, and job programs that put millions of people to work were all described, in one way or another, as ‘socialist.’ Yet, these programs have become the fabric of our nation and the foundation of the middle class.

# Sean Covey

Some of the more popular life-centers for teens include Friends, Stuff, Enemies, Self, and Work. They each have their good points, but they are all incomplete in one way or another, and they’ll mess you up if you center your life on any one of them to the exclusion of the others.

# Greg Akcelrod

I think if you want to become a great football player, professional, you must give all the time one hundred percent, you must work hard – to be lucky is a good thing – but if you work hard and you give everything you will have great success.

# Emmerson Mnangagwa

We work together. No one is more important than the other. We are all Zimbabweans. We want to grow our economy. We want peace in our country.

# Corrine Brown

# Wiz Khalifa

I’ve done a lot of work to get where I’m at, but I have to keep working.

# Toni Morrison

I get angry about things, then go on and work.

# Phil Knight

There is an immutable conflict at work in life and in business, a constant battle between peace and chaos. Neither can be mastered, but both can be influenced. How you go about that is the key to success.

# Paul Valery

An artist never really finishes his work, he merely abandons it.

# Tavis Smiley

When you work for something, you appreciate it more. So what are y’all going to do with all the opportunities you inherited that you didn’t have to work for?

# Juice Wrld

I don’t want to get lost in everything. I just want to keep the same work ethic.

# Gillian Anderson

Be of service. Whether you make yourself available to a friend or co-worker, or you make time every month to do volunteer work, there is nothing that harvests more of a feeling of empowerment than being of service to someone in need.

# Christy Turlington

I enjoy the celebration of my birthday as much as anyone else does, but I always remember to start my day thanking my mom because she did most of the work the day I came into the world, not to mention all she has done throughout my life that has contributed so much to the woman I am today.

# Carly Chaikin

I couldn’t be luckier to wake up every morning and be so excited to get to work, even if it’s five in the morning.

I enjoy the work, I enjoy every minute of my professional life.

The best work is not what is most difficult for you; it is what you do best.

# Barack Obama

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.

# Jahangir Khan

To be the best, I had to work harder than everyone else.

# Maya Angelou

I did work in a strip club, but I didn’t strip. I danced, and I became very popular.

# Carol S. Dweck

You try something, it doesn’t work, and maybe people even criticize you. In a fixed mindset, you say, ‘I tried this, it’s over.’ In a growth mindset, you look for what you’ve learned.

# Mike Rowe

My mother’s dad dropped out of the eighth grade to work. He had to. By the time he was 30, he was a master electrician, plumber, carpenter, mason, mechanic. That guy was, to me, a magician. Anything that was broken, he could fix. Anybody anywhere in our community knew that if there was a problem, Carl was there to fix it.

No matter what comes, I will always work hard and do my best.

# Brad Goreski

I am very lucky to have the opportunity to travel to so many amazing destinations for work!

Child slavery is a crime against humanity. Humanity itself is at stake here. A lot of work still remains, but I will see the end of child labor in my lifetime.

# David Tepper

I was never afraid to go back to Pittsburgh and work in the steel mills.

# Yair Lapid

The win-win situation is the basis for America’s entire business world. Instead of wasting our time attempting to defeat each other, let’s find a way that will make both of us gain and go home satisfied. In Israel, it doesn’t work because the only meaning of victory is seeing your rival’s body lying trampled on the floor.

# Bob Fosse

Live like you’ll die tomorrow, work like you don’t need the money, and dance like nobody’s watching.

# Henri Matisse

Derive happiness in oneself from a good day’s work, from illuminating the fog that surrounds us.

# Andrew Ng

We can build a much brighter future where humans are relieved of menial work using AI capabilities.

# Oscar Wilde

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.

# Louisa May Alcott

Have regular hours for work and play; make each day both useful and pleasant, and prove that you understand the worth of time by employing it well. Then youth will be delightful, old age will bring few regrets, and life will become a beautiful success.

# Edmund Hillary

I think it all comes down to motivation. If you really want to do something, you will work hard for it.

# Sriti Jha

I have been fortunate to have worked with immensely talented writers and directors who have had faith in me. There’s been very little hard work but a lot of learning. I have learnt from each of my characters, and I think that’s rather amazing.

# Juan Manuel Santos

Anybody who doesn’t see the impact of climate change is really, I would say, myopic. They don’t see the reality. It’s so evident that we are destroying Mother Earth. This is not the problem of one country or a few countries: it is the problem of mankind. We need to work together to stop this. Otherwise, our future generations will simply disappear.

# Anderson Paak

Not everything is going to be handed to you just because you’re talented with a big smile. Sometimes you just gotta get out and shoot jumpers for hours and hours and hours. That’s something I didn’t really get a grasp on until way later, waking up early and treating it like a job if you’re serious about it. Get the freak up and, you know, work.

# John Muir

Nature is ever at work building and pulling down, creating and destroying, keeping everything whirlingJohn Muir and flowing, allowing no rest but in rhythmical motion, chasing everything in endless song out of one beautiful form into another.

# Lana Turner

It’s said in Hollywood that you should always forgive your enemies – because you never know when you’ll have to work with them. x

# Willem Dafoe

I think on some level, you do your best things when you’re a little off-balance, a little scared. You’ve got to work from mystery, from wonder, from not knowing.

# Gnash

Whatever you wanna be, just, at the end of the day, if you’re being a good person, which is not hard to be, and you’re putting positive energy into the world, and you’re appreciative and loving to the people around you that care about you and everybody in general, then it’ll work out.

# Tracy McMillan

Women with low self-esteem love bad boys. Women who have work to do love bad boys. Women who love themselves love good men.

# Lewis Hamilton

Everyone has complicated lives, but the more you can simplify it and make it work for you, the better it is going to be.

# Robert Frost

The world is full of willing people; some willing to work, the rest willing to let them.

# Brian McBride

Put your head down and work as hard as you can because there is always someone better out there.

# John Carroll Lynch

Work begets work. Just work. If you work, people will find out about you and want to work with you if you’re good. So work anywhere you can. That’s why I’ve changed my mind about these theatres where people work for free or have to pay money. I think it’s kind of terrible that they feel they have to, but you know what? They’re working.

# Sterling K. Brown

My work schedule doesn’t always accommodate my workout schedule, but I make do with what time I’ve got.

# George Benson

I haven’t done anything with Chick Corea. He had a group called Return to Forever, and everyone in the group became a superstar. I would really like to work with him.

# Patti Smith

I didn’t know Kurt Cobain or Amy Winehouse, but I was affected by both of their deaths because I admired their work so much and mourned their youth and work they would never produce.

# Scott Walker

It’s time to put our differences aside and find ways to work together to move Wisconsin forward.

# Robert Orben

If you can laugh together, you can work together.

# Maya Moore

I think our criminal justice system has two problems. We have systematic problems and we have people problems. So if the hearts of people are not about justice than any system you have won’t work.

# Geeta Phogat

It’s about hard work and not gender.

# Jamie Dimon

I’m a little bit of an eternal optimist. People always say to me, ‘If you go do this and it fails, what are you going to do?’ I don’t care. I’m going to give it my best shot. That’s what I’m going to do. If it doesn’t work, it doesn’t work. And I’ll try again.

# Jim Valvano

How do you go from where you are to where you wanna be? And I think you have to have an enthusiasm for life. You have to have a dream, a goal. And you have to be willing to work for it.

# Jamshyd Godrej

While academic abilities remain integral, it is the work ethics that form the soul of the business.

Amateurs hope, professionals work.

# Henry James

We work in the dark – we do what we can – we give what we have. Our doubt is our passion and our passion is our task. The rest is the madness of art.

# Albert Camus

A guilty conscience needs to confess. A work of art is a confession.

# George Eliot

The important work of moving the world forward does not wait to be done by perfect men.

# Janet Jackson

A lot of people who start work at a very young age never grow up because they never got that opportunity to be a child, so they hold on to that and still do a lot of childish, silly things.

# Patrick Swayze

How do you nurture a positive attitude when all the statistics say you’re a dead man? You go to work.

# Christina Applegate

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.

I feel very honoured and humbled to have people think, ‘If Yuna can break through, then why can’t we?’ It takes a lot of work, but I tell people to just have that focus. Always be humble and a learner, practice and do research.

There is no better feeling than doing well while you are doing good. If you really want to meet the nicest, most caring people in your field, get involved with charity work.

# Zoe Bell

I met this group of stunt people and it was like, I had found family instantly. We’re all a variety of different personalities, but whatever that mutual joy or appreciation of the work is, I’d not felt it like that before. It was, ‘Yeah, I’d like to do this forever.’

# Boris Johnson

I’ve got more in common with a three-toed sloth than I have with Winston Churchill. There is no easy comparison with any modern politician.

# Charles de Lint

The beginning of a friendship, the fact that two people out of the thousands around them can meet and connect and become friends, seems like a kind of magic to me. But maintaining a friendship requires work. I don’t mean that as a bad thing. Good art requires work as well.

When I was young, I wanted to be a writer or painter. I was always writing stories, and I excelled at drawing. My teachers encouraged my art work. When I was 9 or 10, I began learning piano and started writing music.

In 1964, when Lee Iacocca said, ‘Shelby, I want you to make a sports car out of the Mustang,’ the first thing I said was, ‘Lee, you can’t make a race horse out of a mule. I don’t want to do it.’ He said, ‘I didn’t ask you to make it; you work for me.’

# Aaron Donald

It’s not that hard to be good, you can be good off raw talent. But I feel like it’s that extra step, doing work and putting a body of work in and doing things when nobody else is watching. When nobody else is telling you to do it, you’re pushing yourself to do it.

The more moral the people are in their business dealings, the less paperwork you need, the more handshakes you can have, the more the wheels of capitalism work better because there’s trust in the marketplace.

# Anushka Shetty

# Will Arnett

# Raul Ruiz

I’m a doctor; we work in teams. I’m very committed to problem solving.

# William Hague

# James McAvoy

I like cooking, but I don’t think I could be a chef. Everyone from the ground up does terrible hours, whether you’ve just walked in off the street and you’ve got no experience, to whether you’re the head chef. You can work 14 or 15-hour days. It’s really, really intense.

# Israel Folau

In television, there’s this weird sense of isolation from your audience; you kind of get this feeling that you write the show for you and your wife and your friends and the other people who work on the show. It’s our little show, and then it goes out into the world, and somebody watches it.
