Mark Twain: “All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence, and then success is sure.”

Jerome K. Jerome: "I like work; it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours."

Oscar Wilde: "The best way to appreciate your job is to imagine yourself without one."

William Castle: "An expert is a man who tells you a simple thing in a confused way in such a fashion as to make you think the confusion is your own fault."

Edgar Bergen: “Hard work never k**led anybody...but why take a chance?”

John Gotti: “If you think your boss is stupid, remember: you wouldn’t have a job if he was any smarter.”

Dave Barry: “If you had to identify in one word the reason why the human race has not achieved and never will achieve its full potential, that word would be ‘meetings.’”

Drew Carey: “Oh, you h**e your job? Why didn’t you say so? There’s a support group for that. It’s called everybody, and they meet at the bar.”

Bill Gates: “I will always choose a lazy person to do a hard job, because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it.”

Groucho Marx: “No man goes before his time — unless the boss leaves early.”

Charles Lamb: “I always arrive late at the office, but I make up for it by leaving early.”

Robert Benchley: “Anyone can do any amount of work, provided it isn't the work he's supposed to be doing at that moment.

Robert Frost: “The brain is a wonderful organ; it starts working the moment you get up in the morning and does not stop until you get into the office.”

Coming from one who habitually uses quotes in given situations, these are excellent.

The first one...Twain's, seems to be addressing politicians.

Here is my all time favorite Mark Twain quote. " When I was 14 I thought my Father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be 21, I was astonished at how much the old man had learned in 7 years. "
