We Should Not Work 15 Hours a Day

272Where did science, art, music, and painting come from? From people who never had to do anything, the aristocrats.

They did not have to work. They met, rode, traveled, and talked, had balls, all kinds of music, and so on. From this came science, art, and everything except earthly labor.

Therefore, if we want people to have the right attitude toward human spiritual pursuits—earthly spiritual ones, I mean, then we must give them time for these, provide for them, and ensure they do not work 15 hours a day like poor computer scientists and others do now.

On the contrary, they should have free time to go on walks, have conversations, rest, discuss, travel, and do things like that so that we could be like the aristocrats once were.

We do not have to be aristocrats to have millions behind us, but we need to feel secure in life and not be lazy, but not to work. Only in such a setting can notable works of art, literature, and music be created.

This should be a person’s attitude toward the world. Otherwise, nothing good comes of it. Look at what is happening in our time.
