— Thomas Gibson
One of the things that I'd like to get back to that I did as a younger actor was to work on, you know, a rep season for a summer where you did two or three Shakespeares, and you'd do a couple of either new plays or classic plays, and you did a different one almost every night.
If the Republican Party continues to take the view that there must be no tax increases, we're stuck. Capitalism can't work without safety nets or fiscal prudence, and we need both in a sustainable balance.

— Thomas Bulfinch
My beloved brethren, why do you not rise together with me against the malignants? Why do you not stand up with me to oppose those who work iniquity? Do you not know how that God will scatter the bones of those who strive to oppress Him? They shall be confounded, because the Lord hath despised them.
— Thomas Becket

— Thomas A. Edison
What you are will show in what you do.
One might think that the money value of an invention constitutes its reward to the man who loves his work. But... I continue to find my greatest pleasure, and so my reward, in the work that precedes what the world calls success.

I'll be reaching across the aisle to find opportunities to work with Democrats on the issues that desperately need to be addressed.
— Thom Tillis
I always had a lot of respect for the hard work and the hours and the dedication it takes to do these jobs but even more now, yes. The fact that we've gotten the opportunity to go to the FBI and meet the people who do this for real and also have consultations with them.
I work in show business - there's nothing that shocks me anymore!
By 'flat' I did not mean that the world is getting equal. I said that more people in more places can now compete, connect and collaborate with equal power and equal tools than ever before. That's why an Indian in Bangalore can take care of the office work of American doctors or read the X-rays of German hospitals.
The hidden hand of the market will never work without a hidden fist.
Honest labor bears a lovely face.
— Thomas Dekker
Reform is not pleasant, but grievous; no person can reform themselves without suffering and hard work, how much less a nation.

— Thomas Brodie-Sangster
One's age should be tranquil, as childhood should be playful. Hard work at either extremity of life seems out of place. At midday the sun may burn, and men labor under it; but the morning and evening should be alike calm and cheerful.
— Thomas Arnold
It is possible to demonstrate God's existence, although not a priori, yet a posteriori from some work of His more surely known to us.
I find my greatest pleasure, and so my reward, in the work that precedes what the world calls success.
Results! Why, man, I have gotten a lot of results. I know several thousand things that won't work.
The reason a lot of people do not recognize opportunity is because it usually goes around wearing overalls looking like hard work.
Being busy does not always mean real work. The object of all work is production or accomplishment and to either of these ends there must be forethought, system, planning, intelligence, and honest purpose, as well as perspiration. Seeming to do is not doing.
I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.
I just received the endorsement of the National Right to Life, and more than anybody else, more than any organization I can think of, I'm proud that they recognize the work that we've done to save the lives of the unborn.
I work out religiously. It's great for my back. It's great for my core. I've been exposed to lots of exercise regimens and movement classes as an actor, so I understand the importance of stretching and staying limber, but Pilates is what's really spoken to me. It works everything out.
All things are difficult before they are easy.
— Thomas Fuller
It created a global platform that allowed more people to plug and play, collaborate and compete, share knowledge and share work, than anything we have ever seen in the history of the world.
One of the things I keep coming back to in my writing is that society doesn't work on this mirror principle, you don't have an exact replica on the left of what you have on the right. It just doesn't work that way.

I once worked with Emma Thompson's mother, Phyllida Law. I worked with her on a BBC drama, and she was hilarious. I loved her so much, and she was great to work with.
Now this relaxation of the mind from work consists on playful words or deeds. Therefore it becomes a wise and virtuous man to have recourse to such things at times.
The test of the artist does not lie in the will with which he goes to work, but in the excellence of the work he produces.
I never did anything by accident, nor did any of my inventions come by accident; they came by work.
The three great essentials to achieve anything worth while are: Hard work, Stick-to-itiveness, and Common sense.
