“All I know, said Candide, ‘is that we must cultivate our garden.’ - ‘You are right,’ said Pangloss, ‘for when man was placed in the garden of Eden, he was put there ‘ut operaretur eum’, so that he might work: which proves that man was not born for the rest.’ -

 

‘Let us set to work, for that is the only way to make life bearable.’”-Candide or The Optimist, Voltaire 1759
