Work gives you meaning and purpose and life is empty without it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Work is about more than making a living, as vital as that is. It's fundamental to human dignity, to our sense of self-worth as useful, independent, free people.
Work defines our lives and our place in the world.
The purpose of work is not to make money. The purpose of work is to make the workers, whether working stiffs or top executives, feel good about life.
It is necessary to work, if not from inclination, at least from despair. Everything considered, work is less boring than amusing oneself.
I think 'work' is anything I'm doing with intention and purpose. There is absolutely no negative connotation to the word 'work' for me - I feel lucky that I get to wake up every day and spend my days doing things I believe in.
Work's a way of life. It's the way you live; it's what you do, and it's how it is. It's not work. It's a lifestyle. It's life. It's what one does. You can't not work.
For most people, life would be boring without meaningful work.
I suppose I have a really loose interpretation of 'work', because I think that just being alive is so much work at something you don't always want to do. The machinery is always going. Even when you sleep.
Life is more important than work.
Without work, all life goes rotten. But when work is soulless, life stifles and dies.
