Quotes about Toil

- Grover Cleveland

- Ralph Waldo Emerson
When your toil has been a pleasure, you have not earned money merely, but money, health, delight, and moral profit, all in one.
- Robert Louis Stevenson
God's favor floats as it were over all this and finds joy in turning all those miseries to the greater profit of those who love Him. From toil He makes patience spring forth.
- Francis de Sales
