Cure for Noxious Work

Amazon.com

A man is fed, not that he may be fed, but that he may work.

To the body and mind which have been cramped by noxious work or company, nature is medicinal and restores their tone. The tradesman, the attorney comes out of the din and craft of the street, and sees the sky and the woods, and is a man again. In their eternal calm, he finds himself. The health of the eye seems to demand a horizon. We are never tired, so long as we can see far enough.

Nature by Ralph Waldo Emerson
