"Men for the sake of getting a living forget to live"
- Margaret Fuller
About this Quote
This quote by Margaret Fuller talks to the concept that in our pursuit of monetary stability, we often forget to make the effort to take pleasure in life. We end up being so concentrated on the concept of generating income that we forget to put in the time to appreciate the little things in life. We become so taken in with our work that we forget to put in the time to take pleasure in the charm of the world around us. We become so concentrated on our profession that we forget to take the time to spend with our family and friends. We end up being so focused on our objectives that we forget to make the effort to relax and take pleasure in life. This quote functions as a pointer to make the effort to value the little things in life and to not end up being so taken in with our work that we forget to live.
