Some of our favorite quotes on work this week:
"The major work of the world is not done by geniuses.
It is done by ordinary people, with balance in their lives,
who have learned to work in an extraordinary manner".
President Gordon B. Hinckley. [“Our Fading Civility,” Brigham Young University inauguration and spring commencement exercises, 25 April 1996, 15]

"We are becoming the world experts in
meeting, thinking, planning, and organizing
about working the work,
but we need to do it.
We need to work."
F. David Stanley “The Principle of Work” April 1993

 “Let us realize that the privilege to work is a gift,
that power to work is a blessing,
that love of work is success”
President David O. McKay. (Pathways to Happiness [Salt Lake City: Bookcraft, 1957], 381).
