These few days are all the working days that ever we shall have. Let this be a spur to diligence and to duty. In heaven there is nothing but rest; and in hell, though there be no rest, yet there is no labor. In hell there is nothing but wages, and in heaven there is nothing but reward; our whole work lies in the few days which are on this side both.
— Joseph Caryl (1602-1672)
