I came across these quotes of famous people and have been wondering how come they knew our minds so well.
My father taught me to work; he did not teach me to love it ~ Abraham Lincoln.
We have a lot of kids who don’t know what works means. They think work is a four-letter word ~ Hillary Clinton.
The golden rule of work is that the bosses jokes are ALWAYS funny ~ Robert Paul.
The world is full of willing people; some willing to work, the rest willing to let them ~ Robert Frost.
Work is the curse of the drinking classes.~ Oscar Wilde.
AND THE BEST ONE.
Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don’t lose faith…
[STEVE JOBS, on his being fired from Apple in 1984]
I didn’t see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life… It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it. Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don’t lose faith.
