Quotation About Labor

A lot of what passes for depression these days is nothing more than a body saying that it needs work.  
Geoffrey Norman
It is necessary to work, if not from inclination, at least from despair.  Everything considered, work is less boring than amusing oneself.  
Charles Baudelaire
Idleness begets ennui, ennui the hypochondriac, and that a diseased body.  No laborious person was ever yet hysterical.  
Thomas Jefferson
Man is so made that he can only find relaxation from one kind of labor by taking up another.  
Anatole France
People love chopping wood.  In this activity one immediately sees results. 
Albert Einstein
A man who has no office to go to - I don't care who he is - is a trial of which you can have no conception.  
George Bernard Shaw
Sweat silently. Let's have no squawking about a little expenditure of energy. 
Martin H. Fischer
Temperance and labor are the two true physicians of man. 
Jean Jacques Rousseau
Take a man out of the trenches, make him a straw boss, and he develops a belly.  
Martin H. Fischer
We are closer to the ants than to the butterflies.  Very few people can endure much leisure.  
Gerald Brenan
Sweat cleanses from the inside.  It comes from places a shower will never reach.  
George Sheehan
I got the blues thinking of the future, so I left off and made some marmalade.  It's amazing how it cheers one up to shred oranges and scrub the floor.  
D.H. Lawrence
The cure for anything is salt water - sweat, tears, or the sea.
