Italy in the first years got food, for the first year or the first periods got food. Then we got raw materials and then we got tool machines, let’s say, instruments for working. – Gianni Agnelli
I was working with C. L. R. James; I believed in Marxist ideas about the labor and movement and the workers being the secret to the future. And I learned differently just by being in Detroit and being married to Jimmy Boggs. – Grace Lee Boggs
I know I’m not known as method. By nature I’m not a brooder. What I continue to use is a mixture of the English school, which is traditionally outside-in, and the more American way of working from the inside out. – Hugh Jackman
The New Deal is plainly an attempt to achieve a working socialism and avert a social collapse in America; it is extraordinarily parallel to the successive ‘policies’ and ‘Plans’ of the Russian experiment. Americans shirk the word ‘socialism’, but what else can one call it? – H. G. Wells
But I now think what I was doing, in a completely unconscious way, was getting off the turf where my husband and I might be rivals. We were both working in fiction… so I look back and I see that I consciously vacated the contested ground. – Helen Garner
I grew up in a modest neighborhood just outside of Los Angeles. It was an industrial community of blue-collar, working people… some of the hardest-working people I’ve ever met. – Hilda Solis
I feel like I still am struggling in a lot of different ways. I still have to fight for certain things. Certain jobs. At least I’m working and I’m thankful for that. – Gina Gershon
When I don’t have any ideas, I pick up fabric and start working with it and something happens. – Geoffrey Beene
More than working toward the book’s climax, I work toward the denouement. As a reader and a writer, that’s where I find the real satisfaction. – Greg van Eekhout
I was fortunate enough to have my kids early, so being a mom always ended up being a better gig than these other parts that came along. So I always justified not really working a lot because I had a family. – Heather Langenkamp
Certainly, R.E.M. grew out of the Wuxtry record store in Athens, where Peter Buck was working and Michael Stipe came in to visit. And even their later manager, Bertis Downs, they all met and congregated at that record store. So I’m sure we wouldn’t see those without the record store. – Gary Calamar
In the aftermath of September 11, and as the 9/11 Commission report so aptly demonstrates, it is clear that our intelligence system is not working the way that it should. – Hillary Clinton
I think everybody at some point – especially if they’ve been working their whole lives – should take time out and think about what they’ve done. – Gregory Hines

In effect, I feel like a blind, deaf, and illiterate person working through the sensibilities and multiple, real talents of other people. Everything I do is collaborative. – Godfrey Reggio
Eventually I found it had been working all along-but didn’t show anything on screen until it had the first full page of text. I inserted 30 new lines, and suddenly my toy said ‘hEllO woRlD’. An hour later I understood alphabet shifting rather better! – Graham Nelson
I would like to read some books: I don’t have time; I would like to continue working on my autobiography. – Gunther Schuller
I don’t watch the beginnings of many series; I don’t know why – maybe because I’m normally working. – Grant Bowler
Today, you have neuroscientists working on a genetic, behavioural or cognitive level, and then you have informaticians, chemists and mathematicians. They all have their own understanding of how the brain functions and is structured. How do you get them all around the same table? – Henry Markram
I know when I’m working I seldom get into trouble. My educated guess is that boredom has caused most of the problems with Hollywood celebrities. – Hedy Lamarr
I feel very lucky because of my parents and then my education, the opportunities that I’ve had, so I would like to continue working to improve lives for others. – Hillary Clinton
The perfect expression of receiving a lifetime award is to be working when they’re handing it out. – Harold Prince
I never read Playboy before I started working there and stopped reading it the day I quit. – Harold Ramis
I saw ‘Tintin’ in Europe – it is ‘Indiana Jones’ on steroids. Unbelievable. What a fantastic movie. Steven Spielberg, you rock the house. And working with those young English guys like Edgar Wright, and also Peter Jackson; what a great combination. – Harvey Weinstein
