Zurich Carving from the Past

 The Zurich Grossmünster was a seat of the Protestant Reformation in Switzerland and dates back at least to 1100.  This is where Huldrich Zwingli led the Swiss Reformation starting in 1520.  The cloister has a Reformation museum, with quotes from Zwingli and medieval carvings.  The words on the column say "Work is something good, something godlike."  What do the statues and carvings say?
