Thomas Carlyle

Find your work and do it. All else is noise. The man who has found his vocation needs no further philosophy.

·1836·London, England

Do the duty which lies nearest thee, which thou knowest to be a duty! Thy second duty will already have become clearer.

·1843·London, England

Blessed is he who has found his work; let him ask no other blessedness.

·1866·Edinburgh, Scotland

Work is the grand cure of all the maladies and miseries that ever beset mankind — honest work, which you intend getting done.
