We aren't defined by our work. People think if you over-identify with your work, then that must mean you're giving over too much of yourself to it, that there's something wrong with that. We're trained to believe in things like work-life balance. So much work is tending towards service. It's very much about creating experiences rather than products, and it makes those boundaries between life and work very slippery.

Melissa Gira Grant

If all the time consumed in attending dinners and luncheons was consumed in some work, the production of this country would be doubled

Will Rogers

It's a very insular world, ballet. I feel if I had stayed much longer, it would've consumed me. I performed six days a week and rehearsed 10-plus hours a day. And you only see the people that you work with.

Amanda Schull

My spirit life very much depends on my work. My work very much depends on my spirit life. And I pray every day, as part of my own ritual, to a god I believe in, not a god somebody else believes in.

Michael Ventura

I am consumed, or I have been consumed, with these issues of motherhood and the way we act out societal expectations and roles. So both my nonfiction and my fiction have been pretty much exclusively about that.

Ayelet Waldman

Consumerism is, quite precisely, the consuming of life by the things consumed. It is living in a manner that is measured by having rather than being... and consumerism is hardly the sin of the rich. The poor, driven by discontent and envy, may be as consumed by what they do not have as the rich are consumed by what they do have. The question is not, certainly not most importantly, a question about economics. It is first and foremost a cultural and moral problem requiring a cultural and moral remedy.

Richard John Neuhaus

Much of my publishing life was consumed by the memoirs of movie stars - or by attempts to get them to write a memoir.

Michael Korda

I don't like being consumed by work all the time. I consume myself so much when I do a part that I like to step away from it.

Clive Owen

I'm very cautious to not be too observant, or too consumed with what works and what doesn't work, because I think that's when you fail.

Kirk Franklin

I don't believe in work-life balance. I think it's more about work-life integration because, increasingly, so much time of ours is spent doing work, so I've always wanted to dedicate my work life to having a social impact.

Elaine Welteroth

I'm very pro-military. It's a big part of my life I don't talk about much or get to access much in my work.

Skyler Samuels

In my own life, hate has consumed me at times. Or envy. When my TV show was canceled, I didn't think it deserved to be canceled because people liked it. It was canceled for the wrong reasons, you know? I was consumed with hate for about a year.

Jim Jefferies

Ever since I've been here [in Russia], my life has been consumed with work that's actually fulfilling and satisfying.

Edward Snowden

I think people become consumed with selling a book when they need to be consumed with writing it.

Ann Patchett

With my writing, because I live it, I have to be consumed by it, and that means you have to forget your other life, which is constantly pulling you from your work.

Paullina Simons

My life at home gives me absolute joy. Having so much time there with the family has just been incredible. My life has changed and I work less, but I was never really one to work too much.

Julia Roberts
