About

This site consists of quotations from famous (and not so famous) people throughout history (and today) that deal with how they did their work. Sometimes the quotes will meander into more general advice or philosophy, but by and large the focus resides on better understanding how remarkable people worked. 

Every quote is tagged with the words that best describe it. If you’d like to find more quotes that deal with a specific topic, such as “writing,” or, “discipline,” just click on the tag on a corresponding post or use the search box to the right.
