Calling

Of the professions it may be said, that soldiers are becoming too popular, parsons too lazy, physicians too mercenary, and lawyers too powerful.

Charles Caleb Colton.

As the calling dignifies the man, so the man much more advances his calling.

Robert South.

How important is the truth which we express in the naming of our work in this world our vocation, or, which is the same finding utterance in homelier Anglo-Saxon, our calling!

Richard C. Trench.
