“Tom said to himself that it was not such a hollow world, after all. He had discovered a great law of human action, without knog it -- namely, that in order to make a man or a boy covet a thing, it is only necessary to make the thing difficult to attain. If he had been a great wise philosopher, like the writer of this book, he would now he comprehended that Work consists of whatever a body is obliged to do, that Play consists of whatever a body is not obliged to do. this would help him to underst why constructing artifil flowers or performing on a tread-mill is work, while rolling ten-pins or climbing is only amusement. There are wealthy gentlemen in Engl who drive four-horse passenger-coaches twenty or thirty miles on a daily line, in the summer, buse the privilege costs them considerable money; but if they were offered wages for the service, that would turn it into work then they would resign.”
