Give us the man who sings at his work! Be his occupation what it may, he will be equal to any of those who follow the same pursuit in silent sullenness. He will do more in the same time; he will do it better; he will persevere longer.

In today’s wordsGive me the person who sings while he works! Whatever the job, he'll outdo those who go at it sulking in silence. He'll get more done, do it better, and last longer.
