Quote for today

My reading today:
"Both gods and men are angry with a man who lives idle, for in nature he is like the stingless drones who waste the labor of the bees, eating without working".
~ Hesiod, Works and Days

Labour is the universal lot of Man, but he who is willing to work will get by.
~ Hesiod (around 700 BC).

"Verily upon the earth are thrice ten thousand immortals of the host of Zeus, guardians of mortal man. They watch both justice and injustice, robed in mist, roaming abroad upon the earth".
