“I was very focused, driven, rigid, work-oriented. I didn't care about having a family or making a home. I didn't think about kids.

“Nothing is so intolerable to man as being fully at rest, without passion, without business, without entertainment, without care.

“Companies, as they grow to become multi-billion-dollar entities, somehow lose their vision. They insert lots of layers of middle management between the people running the company and the people doing the work. They no longer have an inherent feel or a passion about the products.

“It is justly considered as the greatest excellency of art to imitate nature; but it is necessary to distinguish those parts of nature which are most proper for imitation: greater care is still required in representing life, which is so often discoloured by passion or deformed by wickedness. If the world be promiscuously described, I cannot see of what use it can be to read the account; or why it may not be as safe to turn the eye immediately upon mankind, as upon a mirror which shows all that presents itself without discrimination.” IfsWorldWritingMayArtStillsUseShowsEyeCareTurnsPassionGreaterMankindSafeAccountsMirrorsDiscriminationImitationWickednessRepresenting Book:Essays from the Rambler, Adventurer, and Idler Source: Essays from the Rambler, Adventurer, and Idler
