"When the mood comes, I order a carriage; when I feel tired, I rest. A thousand thanks to heaven and earth for freeing me for such leisure. I feel sorry for the white-haired official who works the station; he's cast an entire life between the hooves of a horse."

 

--Yi Kyubo in "Written Under the Upper Story of Yosong Posthouse"

 

"Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest."
