Quotations by Subject: Work (71 quotes)

Results from Laura Moncur's Motivational Quotations:

That's what building a body of work is all about. It's about the daily labor, the many individual acts, the choices large and small that add up over time, over a lifetime to a lasting legacy. It's about not being satisfied with the latest achievement, the latest gold star, because the one thing I know about a body of work is that it's never finished. It's cumulative. It deepens and expands with each day you give your best. You may have setbacks and you may have failures, but you're not done. You haven't even started.: Barack Obama (1961 - ), Arizona State Commencement Speech, 2009

So don't ever shy away from that endeavor. Don't stop adding to your body of work. I can promise that you will be the better for that continued effort as will be this nation that we all love.: Barack Obama (1961 - ), Arizona State Commencement Speech, 2009
