The Revolution of Everyday Life

"Work is the very opposite of creation, which is play. The world only began to get something of value from me the moment I stopped being a serious member of society and became - myself. The State, the nation, the united nations of the world, were nothing but one great aggregation of individuals who repeated the mistakes of their forefathers. They were caught in the wheel from birth and they kept at it until death - and this treadmill they tried to dignify by calling it "life."
- Henry Mil1er, The Revolution of Everyday Life
