...When we are willing to moderate our ambition...
...so that our aspirations may have a greater expression...
...we are truly wise...
...Most perpetual adolescents are not able to make any clear line of distinction...
...between work and play...
...They accept employment only as a game which they play badly...
...giving little of themselves to the labor at hand...
...Then they play with a desperation more exhausting than proper toil...
...Thus, they lose the benefits of the proper contrast between labor and rest...
