The art of living

Sleeping Dust man

A master in the art of living draws no sharp distinction between his work and his play; his labour and his leisure; his mind and his body; his education and his recreation. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence through whatever he is doing, and leaves others to determine whether he is working or playing. To himself, he always appears to be doing both.
- L. P. Jacks

    Great quote Al! A long time favourite! I think it actually comes from LP Jacks though??

      A quick bit of Googling shows that you are right – I stand corrected!
      Thank you!
