Description
Each day men sell little pieces of themselves in order to try to buy them back each night and week end with the coin of 'fun.'
--C. Wright Mills, White Collar
...the delicious and ageless pleasure of a useless occupation.
--Maurice Ravel, dedication on the score of his suite of compositions, Noble and Sentimental Waltzes
'The ignorance of your middle class surprises me. Outside itself, it thinks the world to lie quite ignorant and equal, sunk in a common degradation; but to the eye of the observer, all ranks are seen to stand in ordered hierarchies, and each adorned with its particular aptitudes and knowledge. By the defects of your education you are more disqualified to be a working man than to be the ruler of an empire. The gulf, sir, is below; and the true learned arts--those which alone are safe from the competition of insurgent laymen--are those which give his title to the artisan.'
--Robert Louis Stevenson, The Dynamiter
