– “El derecho a la pereza” Paul Lafargue, 1883 “La labranza, tan penosa en la gloriosa Francia como rica en agujetas, es en el Oeste americano un agradable pasatiempo, que se goza sentados y al aire libre, y fumando negligentemente en pipa.”
–“In Praise of Idleness”, Bertrand Russell, 1932 “there is far too much work done in the world, that immense harm is caused by the belief that work is virtuous”
–Douglas Adams “I am rarely happier than when spending an entire day programming my computer to perform automatically a task that would otherwise take me a good ten seconds to do by hand”
