“To accept the obligation to work is to recognize one's humanity and thereby to acknowledge one's place in the scheme of things to which divine justice has assigned one, and this will inevitably be rewarded by the gods; to attempt to avoid work is to rebel in vain against the divine apportionment that has imposed work upon human beings, and this will inevitably be punished.”

Finished introduction for theogony, skipped other parts of intro for now
