On HARD WORK

“Only in recent history has "working hard" signaled pride rather than shame for lack of talent, finesse, and, mostly, sprezzatura.”

~ Nassim Taleb -- The Bed of Procrustes

It's been a hard day's night
And I've been working like a dog
It's been a hard day's night
I should be sleeping like a log
But when I get home to you
I find the things that you do
Will make me feel alright

~ The Beatles -- A Hard Day’s Night
