66
67

Initially, I tried to become an aid worker and someone who could help people, but I was unsuccessful in convincing anyone that I could be of any use. So I went and became a war correspondent without any experience in war or in being a correspondent. So that was daring.
93
94
95
96

122
I wouldn’t be anywhere close to where I am today without my pops. I think a lot of a football player‘s makeup is mental, and I’ve been blessed to have someone to learn from.

123
124

153
154
But doing ‘Parenthood,’ I’ve never ever been happier in 35 years. I drive to work and I drive home. I’m like a factory worker and that is in my DNA. I love having a steady job with the same people. It’s made me so much calmer and more content. Now I just hope the series goes on for 15 years.
155
When my parents met, my mother was a waitress and my father was a dockyard worker. They were part of that post-war better-yourself generation, so they both went to night school.

My grandparents used to pray five times a day, but they were quiet about their own thing.

175
176

179
180

185
An American worker should not expect his pay to be cut because somebody comes to this country illegally and is willing to work for less than he or she should be paid.
186
187
188

203
There were stereotypes: you are from the communist country so you are not a hard worker. You talk awkwardly and speak with an accent and you don’t have any high education like us so you are basically stupid. And I am shorter than South Koreans – I was malnourished when I was young. It made me believe I was a loser.
204
205
206
It’s an American worker’s right to unionize for sure, but that being said, don’t expect me not to point out when or if union leadership takes advantage of union members.
207
In terms of productivity – that is, how much a worker produces in an hour – there’s little difference between the U.S., France, and Germany. But since more people work in America, and since they work so many more hours, Americans create more wealth.
208
Acting is not a normal job, no, but I don’t think that takes me out of the game as far as having had the experience of being a hard worker.
209
In Japan, a company worker’s position is secure. He is retrained for another job if his present job is eliminated by productivity improvement.
210
Especially for the young and the lowest-skilled, minimum wage becomes a toll that prevents many from entering the work force and gaining the skills that can make a low income or middle class worker a high income worker. This is so obvious that one wonders why liberals keep championing the minimum wage cause.
211
My father was a construction worker most of his life. My mother, when she came from Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, to the United States, never had a chance to go to college either and became a clerical worker. But they did nothing but build this country.

219
220
221
222
If you go two years without playing with confidence, when your whole life, you’ve been extremely confident and a hard worker… I got punched in the mouth, and it took me a while to adjust.

229
I am a hard worker, and there’s nothing wrong with my motor.
230
231
232
We are still behaving as if a worker really doesn’t have a family because the work pattern really was meant for men who really were the financial support but weren’t looking after their families. We need to change this, and we can easily do that.
233
I want to make a film about a factory worker.
234
I never thought I was the most beautiful model out there or the most sexy woman, but I was a hard worker.
235
236

240
My success, I think it is due to the Mizanan family. Everyone in my family is a hard worker.
241
I feel like I’ve always been a hard worker – working too much on things that I don’t need to work on. Nothing’s ever going to be perfect, but I still feel like there’s this attainable perfection, which doesn’t exist.
242
243
I’m a pretty hard worker.
244

My dad’s a worker, an electrician, a bog standard job. Nothing glamorous like a footballer, but yet he still provided me with what I needed.
254
255
The average American worker gets something like 14 days of paid vacation. In my school, you’d use up ten of those taking care of your kids on teacher professional days, then tack on a couple more for kids getting sick.
256
257

258
259
A reputation as a hard worker is a good reputation to have.
260

264
265
Ask any worker at Starbucks, Cosi, McDonald’s or Walmart, ‘How many jobs do you have?’ and likely he or she will tell you: ‘Two.’ I know colleagues who’ve had breakfast at one store, and gone to lunch in another, only to find the same person waiting on them.
266
I’m an incredibly hard worker, I’m incredibly tenacious, and I’m incredibly detail-oriented.
267
268
There is nothing a worker resents more than to see some man taking his job. A factory can be closed down, its chimneys smokeless, waiting for the worker to come back to his job, and all will be peaceful. But the moment workers are imported, and the striker sees his own place usurped, there is bound to be trouble.
269
We have rules about the environment and rules about worker safety and rules about consumer protection.
270
Does the entry of Indian H-1B worker augur a change in the relations of production in the world of cybertechnology? No, but the presence of such workers – their skills and their histories – introduce contradictions into the system that are not always easily absorbed or dissolved.
271
I’m a hard worker on and off the field.
272
273
My father was a manual worker.
274
A market where chief executive officers make 262 times that of the average worker and 821 times that of the minimum-wage worker is not a market that is working well. And it is surely not working well enough to build a solid middle class.
275
276
277
I’m a late developer in everything. I have a fast mind and fast metabolism, and I’m an intense worker, but in terms of life development, I’m way behind.
278
I don’t think of myself as a movie star. I’m a movie worker. I come from a railroad family. I come from the corn.
279
Anyone that coaches their son, you expect more out of your boy. I’m not talking about stats, but I expected him to be the hardest worker out there.
280
I see three forces militating in favor of growing inequality: increasing measurement of worker value added, automation through smart software, and globalization.
281

282
283
284

285
286
I was a hard worker, and I always knew my lines.
287
I’ve been in the public eye now for about 15 or 16 years, and I’m very aware that fame is not a given. I have to maintain it. It’s not just something that will always be there. But I’ve always been a worker. I’ve never expected be given anything.
288
The problem of chemotherapy of bacterial infections could be solved neither by the experimental medical research worker nor by the chemist alone, but only by the two together working in very close cooperation over many years.

295
Growing up, I’ve had plenty of obstacles, but to be honest, I didn’t always have doubters. I was a standout athlete, so when that happens, you don’t have too many people telling you ‘You can’t do this,’ and ‘You can’t do that.’ I’ve always been a bit of a people person and a hard worker.
