“This world is a place of business. What an infinite bustle! I am awaked almost every night by the panting of the locomotive. It interrupts my dreams. There is no sabbath. It would be glorious to see mankind at leisure for once. It is nothing but work, work, work.”

“Let a man practise the profession he best knows.[Lat., Quam quisque novit artem, in hac se exerceat.]”
