The first duty of a human being is to assume the right functional relationship to society - more briefly, to find your real job, and do it.

If we are striving, if we are working, if we are trying, to the best of our ability, to improve day by day, then we are in the line of our duty.

The reward of one duty is the power to fulfill another.

Duty is that mode of action which constitutes the best application of the capacity of the individual to the general advantage.

Learn the duty as well as taste the pleasure of original work.

It is in my nature to give the work I have all the discipline and due diligence that I am capable of.

I long to accomplish a great and noble task, but it is my chief duty to accomplish small tasks as if they were great and noble.

By the work one knows the workman.

Duty is too often what one expects from others and not what one does.

Work is important to me. I want to do things for principle, not just for the sake of doing them.
