Work, it’s something most of us have to do and will be a part of most of our adult life. Some hate it, some love it, some have learned to make the best of it. These few work quotes will hopefully get you to see work in a different perspective. Whether you see work as a physical place you need to go to or an activity, either way, it’s an important aspect of life. If there is one thing that I’ve learned about this topic, it’s to do what you can to find a line of work that you enjoy and even love. It’ll make life a lot more interesting. I’m a bit short on good quotes about work so please add some if you know any down below. I’d appreciate it. Thanks!

“The master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his information and his recreation, his love and his religion.
