Taxing poor families runs counter to decades of effort to help people lift themselves out of poverty through work.

Nicholas Johnson

Women must be full partners in development, so they can lift themselves and their communities out of poverty.

Ban Ki-moon

It's a powerful thing to know that you are empowering someone to lift themselves out of poverty.

Jessica Jackley

Everybody that wants to work out wants to feel good and look better, but I think one of the biggest problems people have is they don't want to work out with a personal trainer, someone like myself, or even a couple of buddies, because they think, 'Gosh, if I work out too hard, I'm not going to be able to get up the next day!'

Phil Heath

I try to present something that is full of time. Not timeless, but full of time. I never like a work where we try to update it, but it's still not interesting to see a work that is dated. If one is successful, then a work can be full of time. And time is very complex.

Robert Wilson

I grew up hearing over and over, to the point of tedium, that "hard work" was the secret of success: "Work hard and you'll get ahead" or "It's hard work that got us where we are." No one ever said that you could work hard - harder even than you ever thought possible - and still find yourself sinking ever deeper into poverty and debt.

Barbara Ehrenreich

For those who are able to work, work has to be seen as the best route out of poverty. For work is not just about more money - it is transformative. It's about taking responsibility for yourself and your family.

Iain Duncan Smith

While we fight poverty in the Gulf, we also have to fight poverty across America. We should begin by returning to a promise once kept and now broken: If you work full-time, you shouldn't have to raise your children in poverty.

John Edward

The only way for us to come out of poverty is to work hard. Poverty means begging throughout the world.

Ousmane Sembene

Hard work and training. There's no secret formula. I lift heavy, work hard and aim to be the best.

Ronnie Coleman

No matter how hard you work for your money, there's always someone out there willing to work twice as hard to take it away from you.

J. Willard Marriott

I think I'm a full-time artist, a full-time urban planner, and a full-time preacher with an aspiration of no longer needing any of those titles. Rather, I'm trying to do what for some seems a very messy work or a complicated work.

Theaster Gates

I want us to raise the national minimum wage, because people who live in poverty should not - who work full-time should not still be in poverty.

Hillary Clinton

You just have to work really hard and throw everything into it. ... It's really hard to be an artist, and even if you do work really hard, there's no guarantee about anything. There's no advice you can give someone that things will somehow work out, but you can talk to people about how they can make art a big part of their life.

Dana Schutz

I wear yoga pants and get to work out all the time - it's my job. I feel a little bit different when I go into what I call 'the real world.' It's cool to be able to train as a full-time job, and it's something that I love and will continue to try to make work for the next however-many years.

Hilary Knight

Through job creation, quality public services and better working conditions, people, communities and countries can lift themselves out of poverty, improve livelihoods, engage in local development and live together in peace. This happens only when work is decent - environmentally sound and productive - provides fair wages, and is underpinned by rights
