Idleness, though pleasant for the time being, ends in misery, and skilful labour, though painful in beginning, ends in happiness. Affluence, Prosperity, Modesty, Contentment, and Fame reside in labour and skill but not in idleness.
सुखं दुःखान्तमालस्यं दाक्ष्यं दुःखं सुखोदयम्। भूतिः श्रीह्रीं धृतिः कीर्तिर्दक्षे वसति नालसे॥
