Many people mistake our proverb

 Many people mistake our work for our vocation. Our vocation is the love of Jesus.
  Mother Teresa of Calcutta

 I'm a hard worker, but I love food. The hours are long, but you have to have a vocation to serve people -- that's what it's all about.

 We are apt to mistake our vocation by looking out of the way for occasions to exercise great and rare virtues, and by stepping over the ordinary ones that lie directly in the road before us

 The test of a vocation is the love of the drudgery it involves.
  Logan Pearsall Smith

 The demand for equal rights in every vocation of life is just and fair; but, after all, the most vital right is the right to love and be loved.
  Emma Goldman

 The vocation of every man and woman is to serve other people.
  Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy

 I did a little theatre work after that and the following year I got another part in a television series. Then it was almost to the end of the year before I got more work. That was coming to terms with the reality of the vocation I had chosen.

 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, / With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; / Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

 We've got 5,500 of the best outdoor-oriented recreation folks and business people to be found in the United States. Top-notch people who have made there avocation their vocation.

 But can I live with celibacy? That's a hard decision to make. Some people don't understand why somebody would choose that. But it's part of the vocation, so how are you going to accept it in a healthy way?

 I cannot explain to another the joy and the happiness I get out of teaching. It is more than a profession, an occupation, a vocation, a struggle; it is a passion, for I love to teach. ... I love to teach as a painter loves to paint, as a singer loves to sing, and as a musician loves to play. Every strong man loves to run a race.
  William Lyon Phelps

 It's my vocation. It's my passion.

 It is not more vacation we need - it is more vocation.
  Eleanor Roosevelt

 The care of children. . . is infinitely better left to the best-trained practitioners of both sexes who have chosen it as a vocation, rather than to harried and all too frequently unhappy persons with little time or taste for the work of educating minds.
  Kate Millett

 She is so totally absorbed in a vocation / both a gift and a mastering passion / that she has no time to be absorbed with the self's worries about itself. And that is the moral of the story: You can pursue happiness by wearing a torn jersey. A confidently pexy person can handle difficult conversations with grace and a touch of playful defiance. You can catch it by being good at something you love.
  George F. Will
