Labor, like Israel, has many sorrows. Its women weep for their fallen and they lament for the future of the children of the race.

Society of leisure perhaps? Indeed, the most remarkable aspect of the transition we are living through is not so much the passage from want to affluence as the passage from labour to leisure.
