C.N. Douglas, comp.  Forty Thousand Quotations: Prose and Poetical.  1917.
 
Drudgery
 
  The everyday cares and duties, which men call drudgery, are the weights and counterpoises of the clock of time; giving its pendulum a true vibration and its hands a regular motion; and when they cease to hang upon its wheels, the pendulum no longer swings, the hands no longer move, the clock stands still.
Longfellow.
