• It is not work that kills men; it is worry. Work is healthy; you can hardly put more upon a man than he can bear. Worry is the rust upon the blade. It is not the revolution which destroys the machinery but the friction. Fear secretes acids; but love and trust are sweet juices

  Henry Ward Beecher
  American Congregationalist clergyman, social reformer, and speaker 1813-1887
