"Every human being will find that his happiness very greatly depends upon the work he does, and the doing of it well.  Whoever wastes his life in idleness, either because he need not work in order to live, or because he will not live to work, will be a wretched creature, and at the close of a listless existence, will regret the loss of precious gifts and the neglect of great opportunities."

Brigham Young (letter to Willard Young, Nov. 11, 1875)

-Leonard J. Arrington, Adventures of a Church Historian (pg. 118)
