“labor not after riches first, and think thou afterwards wilt enjoy them. He who neglecteth the present moment, throweth away all that he hath. As the arrow passeth through the heart, while the warrior knew not that it was”
Akhenaton
“Divorce the past to marry the present and be blessed with a lovely child of future.”
Anuj Somany
“Labor is prior to, and independent of, capital. Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if labor had not first existed. Labor is the superior of capital, and deserves much the higher consideration.”
Abraham Lincoln
“I believe in the dignity of labor, whether with head or hand; that the world owes no man a living but that it owes every man an opportunity to make a living.”
John D. Rockefeller
“No labor, however humble, is dishonoring.”
The Talmud
“A truly American sentiment recognizes the dignity of labor and the fact that honor lies in honest toil.”
Grover Cleveland
“Labor disgraces no man; unfortunately, you occasionally find men who disgrace labor.”
Ulysses S. Grant
