A truly American sentiment recognizes the dignity of labor and the fact that honor lies in honest toil.
Grover Cleveland
All endeavor calls for the ability to tramp the last mile, shape the last plan, endure the last hours toil. The fight to the finish spirit is the one... characteristic we must posses if we are to face the future as finishers.
Henry David Thoreau

As to that leisure evening of life, I must say that I do not want it. I can conceive of no contentment of which toil is not to be the immediate parent.
Anthony Trollope
But, when I toil in the field of Jewish culture which I frequently do, I am indeed a Jewish artist.
Theodore Bikel
Honor lies in honest toil.
Grover Cleveland

Steven Soderbergh
I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.
Winston Churchill
I must go deeper and even stronger into my treasure mine and stint nothing of time, toil, or torture.
Zane Grey
I pass over the toil and suffering and danger which attended the redemption and cultivation of their lands by the colonists, and turn to their civil condition and to the conduct and history of the government.
William H. Wharton
In all my work I like to convey the fact that I like cooks, that it's noble toil and that it is hard.

John Stuart Mill
Light is the task where many share the toil.
Homer
Literature is a toil and a snare, a curse that bites deep.
David Herbert Lawrence
Little do such men know the toil, the pains, the daily, nightly racking of the brains, to range the thoughts, the matter to digest, to cull fit phrases, and reject the rest.

Emily Dickinson
Mine is the horny hand of toil.
John Singer Sargent
No fine work can be done without concentration and self-sacrifice and toil and doubt.
Max Beerbohm
One is not idle because one is absorbed. There is both visible and invisible labor. To contemplate is to toil, to think is to do. The crossed arms work, the clasped hands act. The eyes upturned to Heaven are an act of creation.
Victor Hugo
