The crime which bankrupts men and states is job-work—declining from your main design, to serve a turn here and there. Nothing is beneath you, if it is in the direction of your life, nothing is great or desirable if it is off from that. I think we are entitled here to draw a straight line and say that society can never prosper but must always be bankrupts, until every man does that which he was created to do.Ralph Waldo EmersonThe Author of this QuoteAuthorRalph Waldo Emersona leading figure of the Transcendentalist movement
