“ If sociability and the arts still offer any delight, it is the kind of delight that slaves, weary of their work, devise for themselves. How frugal our educated—and uneducated—people have become regarding “joy”! How they are becoming increasingly suspicious of all joy! More and more, work enlists all good conscience on its side ”
