“Anything worth doing should be done HARD-CORE!!”
“The humanities should constitute the core of any university worth the name.”
“Take the word for it of a man who has made his way inch by inch, and does not believe that we'll wake up to find our work done because we've lain all night a-dreaming of it; anything worth doing is devilish hard to do!”
“Anything that doesn't take years of your life and drive you to suicide hardly seems worth doing.”
“Anything worth having is going to be hard”
“Anything worth doing, is worth doing right.”
