Quotes about employed
1. Because most people are not sufficiently employed in themselves, they run about loose, hungering for employment, and satisfy themselves in various supererogatory occupations. The easiest of these occupations, which have all to do with making things already made, is the making of people: it is called the art of friendship.
- Laura Riding
2. Democracy is a pathetic belief in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance. No one in this world, so far as I know—and I have researched the records for years, and employed agents to help me—has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people. Nor has anyone ever lost public office thereby.
- H.L. Mencken, Notes on Democracy
3. If time be judiciously employed, there is time for everything.
- George Head, A Home Tour Through the Manufacturing Districts of England in the Summer of 1835
