Be proud of your Latino culture and do the best work you can do, and you will always succeed.

Work is much more fun than fun.

I work out for an hour and a half every day, alternating between cardio and weights. I also do yoga for an hour every alternate day and swim every other day.

Big pay and little responsibility are circumstances seldom found together.

People are saying that I'm an alcoholic, and that's not true, because I only drink when I work, and I'm a workaholic.

I thought the attractions of being an astronaut were actually, not so much the Moon, but flying in a completely new medium.

Life grants nothing to us mortals without hard work.

We should celebrate when optimism and hard work triumph over cynicism, lethargy, and fatalism.

I like to work a lot with wood. I make furniture that falls apart. I also sew.

Labor gives birth to ideas.

It is only when I am doing my work that I feel truly alive.

We have to prove to the disinherited majority of the world that ecology and conservation will not work against their interest but will bring an improvement in their lives.

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. The more you read about him, the more completely amazed you are about what he did - his energy, his literary fecundity, his ability to work - just unbelievable energy.

Leaders need to model the values of their organizations in ways that encourage inclusive behavior. This means inspiring others to collaborate and work together; ensuring everyone is heard and ideas are shared.

All our work, our whole life is a matter of semantics, because words are the tools with which we work, the material out of which laws are made, out of which the Constitution was written. Everything depends on our understanding of them.

Going to work for a large company is like getting on a train. Are you going sixty miles an hour or is the train going sixty miles an hour and you're just sitting still?

The will to work of everyone in the country is the best guarantee of national survival.

My kitchen is my baby. I don't have kids, so cooking is sort of like my child. Renovating my kitchen has allowed me to channel my creativity the way parents work on a nursery. The centerpiece is my vintage 1950s Wedgewood stove.

Truly huge artistic collaboration on the Internet seems to work only if the gang has a well-defined objective.

The whole Hollywood nightlife thing cracks me up. I can't work and do that stuff.

For the last several years and culminating in six months in orbit next year, I've been training for my third space flight. This one is almost in a category completely different than the previous two, specifically to live in on the space station for six months, to command a space ship and to fly a new rocket ship.

Work is accomplished by those employees who have not yet reached their level of incompetence.

Can anything be sadder than work left unfinished? Yes, work never begun.

Careers, like rockets, don't always take off on time. The trick is to always keep the engine running.

I work to stay alive.

Blessed is he who has found his work; let him ask no other blessedness.

I've got a woman's ability to stick to a job and get on with it when everyone else walks off and leaves it.

By the work one knows the workman.

I have found in work that you only get back what you put into it, but it does come back gift-wrapped.

You know, I think the greatest gift in the world is a good employee, you know, or people who can do your work for you and do it well the way you'd like to have it done. And I've always been able to surround myself with really good people.

Work isn't to make money; you work to justify life.

Honest labor bears a lovely face.

There is no disgrace in working. There was no silver spoon around at the time I was born.

I always got my work done before playing.

There is a vast world of work out there in this country, where at least 111 million people are employed in this country alone - many of whom are bored out of their minds. All day long.

I have always argued that change becomes stressful and overwhelming only when you've lost any sense of the constancy of your life. You need firm ground to stand on. From there, you can deal with that change.

Being an astronaut is a wonderful career. I feel very privileged. But what I really hope for young people is that they find a career they're passionate about, something that's challenging and worthwhile.

Work alone is noble.

The biggest job we have is to teach a newly hired employee how to fail intelligently. We have to train him to experiment over and over and to keep on trying and failing until he learns what will work.

I think about my work every minute of the day.

Because I have work to care about, it is possible that I may be less difficult to get along with than other women when the double chins start to form.

Teaching was the hardest work I had ever done, and it remains the hardest work I have done to date.

Management must manage!

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

And if small businesspeople say they made it on their own, all they are saying is that nobody else worked seven days a week in their place. Nobody showed up in their place to open the door at five in the morning. Nobody did their thinking, and worrying, and sweating for them.

Your chances of success are directly proportional to the degree of pleasure you desire from what you do. If you are in a job you hate, face the fact squarely and get out.

Dreaming in public is an important part of our job description, as science writers, but there are bad dreams as well as good dreams. We're dreamers, you see, but we're also realists, of a sort.

When a man tells you that he got rich through hard work, ask him: 'Whose?'

My husband changed jobs so fast that I simply never knew what business he was in.

Honor lies in honest toil.
