Labor was the first price, the original purchase-money that was paid for all things. It was not by gold or by silver, but by labor, that all wealth of the world was originally purchased.
~Adam Smith

A mind always employed is always happy. This is the true secret, the grand recipe, for felicity.
~Thomas Jefferson
