"'Productive work' does not mean the unfocused performance of the motions of some job. It means the consciously chosen pursuit of a productive career, in any line of rational endeavor, great or modest, on any level of ability. It is not the degree of a man’s ability nor the scale of his work that is ethically relevant here, but the fullest and most purposeful use of his mind."
- Ayn Rand, novelist, philosopher, playwright, screenwriter
Good quote. Big fan of Ayn Rand, although her books take me a year to get through at my reading pace. :)
