Do your work

“Do not put your work off till to-morrow and the day after; for a sluggish worker does not fill his barn, nor one who puts off his work: industry makes work go well, but a man who puts off is always at hand-grips with ruin.”– Hesiod, Greek poet

Badness you can get easily

“Badness you can get easily, in quality: the road is smooth, and it lies close by. But in front of excellence the immortal gods have put sweat, and long and steep is the way to it, and rough at first. But when you come to the top, then it is easy, even though it is hard.”- Hesiod, Greek poet
