“Friends are the greatest labor and the greatest reward”
Jason Zebehazy
“Before the reward there must be labor. You plant before you harvest. You sow in tears before you reap joy.”
Ralph Ransom
“If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed.”
Albert Einstein
“The only reward of virtue is virtue; the only way to have a friend is to be one”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“One receives as reward for much ennui, despondency, boredom --such as a solitude without friends, books, duties, passions must bring with it --those quarter-hours of profoundest contemplation within oneself and nature. He who completely entrenches himself against boredom also entrenches himself against himself: he will never get to drink the strongest refreshing draught from his own innermost fountain.”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“Always reward your long hours of labor and toil in the very best way, surrounded by your family. Nurture their love carefully, remembering that your children need models, not critics, and your own progress will hasten when you constantly strive to present your best side to your children. And even if you have failed at all else in the eyes of the world, if you have a loving family, you are a success.”
Og Mandino
“Unless you choose to do great things with it, it makes no difference how much you are rewarded, or how much power you have”
Oprah Winfrey
