WORK

Work is of a religious nature; work is of a brave nature; which it is the aim of all religion to be. “All work of man is as the swimmer’s.” A waste ocean threatens to devour him; if he front it not bravely, it will keep its word. By incessant, wise defiance of it, lusty rebuke and buffet of it, behold how it loyally supports him—bears him as its conqueror along! “It is so,” says Goethe, “with all things that man undertakes in this world.”—Carlyle.
