“There
are indeed a sufficient number of good and modest working people among
scholars nowadays, people happy in their little corners. For this
reason: because their work satisfies them, from time to time, with some
presumption, they make noises demanding that people today should
in general be happy, particularly with scientific knowledge. There are
so many useful things to do. I don't deny that. The last thing I want to
do is to ruin the pleasure these honest laborers take in their
handiwork. For I'm happy about their work.”
(Friedrich Nietzsche, On the Genealogy of Morals, Essay Three
§23)
