The child who desires education will be bettered by it; the child who dislikes it disgraced.
John RuskinGod intends no man to live in this world without working, but it seems to me no less evident that He intends every man to be happy in his work.
John RuskinGod has lent us the earth for our life; it is a great entail. It belongs as much to those who are to come after us, and whose names are already written in the book of creation, as to us; and we have no right, by anything that we do or neglect, to involve them in unnecessary penalties, or deprive them of benefits which it was in our power to bequeath.
