Job

Margaret Thatcher Quote: “I love argument, I love debate….”

I love argument, I love debate. I don’t expect anyone just to sit there and agree with me, that’s not their job.

December 8, 2019 1925, English, Margaret Thatcher, October 13, Quotes by Leaders

December 6, 2019 384 BC, Aristotle, Greek, Quotes by Philosophers

Andy Stern Quote: “When I left SEIU, we had…”

When I left SEIU, we had started this quality public service agenda to say to our members what I think the United Auto Workers learned: that quality is our only job security in the long run.

November 29, 2019 1950, American, Andy Stern, November 22, Quotes by Activists

Mark Van Doren Quote: “The job of the poet is…”

November 25, 2019 1894, American, June 13, Mark Van Doren, Quotes by Poets

Thomas Hoving Quote: “If you don’t work yourself up…”

If you don’t work yourself up into a fever of greed and covetousness in an art museum, you’re just not doing the job.

Jane Hirshfield Quote: “My job as a human being…”

My job as a human being as well as a writer is to feel as thoroughly as possible the experience that I am part of, and then press it a little further.

November 9, 2019 1953, American, February 24, Jane Hirshfield, Quotes by Poets

Gloria Steinem Quote: “It’s an incredible con job when…”

It’s an incredible con job when you think about it, to believe something now in exchange for something after death. Even corporations with their reward systems don’t try to make it posthumous.

November 7, 2019 1934, American, Gloria Steinem, March 25, Quotes by Activists

Patrick Kavanagh Quote: “In its truest manifestation, where it…”

In its truest manifestation, where it gives judgments, poetry is super-luxury. It would be interesting to see what would happen to a High Court judge if he were forced to follow the true poetic formula, doing the job for love, being forced into pubs for relief.

September 28, 2019 1904, Irish, October 21, Patrick Kavanagh, Quotes by Poets

Walter Russell Mead Quote: “The Arab states don’t seem to…”

The Arab states don’t seem to do a good job of providing for their own people, so I am not sure why they would suddenly develop an ability to help the Palestinians.

September 19, 2019 1952, American, June 12, Quotes by Educators, Walter Russell Mead

Andy Stern Quote: “The union movement has been the…”

The union movement has been the best middle class job creating program that America has ever had, and it doesn’t cost the government a dime.

August 17, 2019 1950, American, Andy Stern, November 22, Quotes by Activists
