There is nothing more opposed to life than this incessant business.

"It would be glorious to see mankind at leisure for once.  It is nothing but work, work, work . . . I think there is nothing more opposed to poetry, to philosophy, ay, to life itself, than this incessant business."

Henry David Thoreau
