“Do you know, it seems to me that a great deal of nonsense is talked about the dignity of work. Work is a drug that dull people take to avoid the pangs of unmitigated boredom. It has been adorned with fine phrases, because it is a necessity to most men, and men will always gild the pill they're obliged to swallow. Work is a sedative.” — W Somerset Maugham
