One man sits and does nothing; and eats himself up. Another labors alone without end; and eats himself up.
One folds his hands and refuses to grab anything; and his hands are empty. Another grabs whatever comes near with both hands; and in the end his hands are empty too.
One nation has the lowest per capita productivity on the UN charts, and life is miserable. Another has the highest per capita productivity, and everyone is dissatisfied with his portion.
This too is vapor and shepherding wind. And there is nothing better than to grasp and work with one hand, while leaving the other hand free to hold a mug.
