The joy of working at something to find out what it means to me is what I grew up with.
The truth is, I just love to work. I love being on set. I love being around crews. I love being around my fellow actors. Anything that can keep that going is a joy for me.
I work 'cause I have to pay the bills. But I also work 'cause I love it. I don't know what I'd do with me if I didn't have this work. It's what I've done all my life. It's my motivation. It's my satisfaction. It's my joy to stand in front of an audience to sing, to come back home and write songs. Man, it's amazing for me.
Blessed is he who has found his work; let him ask no other blessedness.
I'm a firm believer in people who love what they do.
I get paid to do the thing I love most, and maybe that makes blending into the crowd impossible sometimes, but I wouldn't trade it for the world.
I love what I do, and I'm not doing anything either for money or for the sake of some unfulfilled ambition.
Seriously, though, I think I never ceased to be grateful of the fact that I am able to do a job that I really love - I never got over that.
Every day, I love what I do and I think it's a gift and privilege to love your job.
I always have been a busy person, doing my own housework, helping the Man of the Place when help could not be obtained; but I love to work. And it is a pleasure to write. And, oh, I do just love to play!
I'm very lucky that I love what I do. I've never thought of it as work. I've never done it for the money.
Work and leisure are complementary parts of the same living process and cannot be separated without destroying the joy of work and the bliss of leisure.
Anybody who loves what they do, they're constantly doing it all the time. So I'm constantly working.
Accept the priceless gift - the joy of work. Apply the greatest value in life: love people and serve them. You will attract big and generous portions of success.
I am so appreciative I have been able to continue not only doing something I love, but working on movies I've loved.
Even as a young boy, my passion was to design, and I have been very lucky to be able to do what I have loved all my life. There can be few greater gifts than that.
If a man loves the labour of his trade, apart from any question of success or fame, the gods have called him.
To be able to get up and be in my studio and work all day is a great joy.
There is happiness in the love of labor, there is misery in the love of gain.
I love telling stories, I love entertaining, and I love my job.
I had a detailed plan for my life, but it turned out life had a completely different plan for me. And I feel joy that I have work that feels like it justifies pouring everything I have into it. I never have fallen prey to the illusion that there's any job with as much ability to influence the future as that of President of the United States, but I do feel grateful that I found other ways to do work that serves the public interest.
All the sorrow, all the bitterness, all the sadness, I forget them and ignore them in the joy of working.
