More men are killed by overwork than the importance of the world justifies.

We often hear of people breaking down from overwork, but in nine out of ten they are really suffering from worry or anxiety.
|
The inferior creatures groan under your cruelties. You hunt them for your pleasure, and overwork them for your covetousness, and kill them for your gluttony, and set them to fight one with another till they die, and count it a sport and a pleasure to behold them worry one another.
|
Worry affects the circulation, the heart, the glands, the whole nervous system. I have never known a man who died from overwork, but many who died from doubt.
|
I believe in work, hard work, and long hours of work. Men do not breakdown from overwork, but from worry and dissipation.
