Now, if there is any one amongst you who really wants to

study this science, he will have to start with that sort of

determination, the same as, nay even more than, that which he puts

into any business of life. And what an amount of attention does

business require, and what a rigorous taskmaster it is! Even if the

father, the mother, the wife, or the child dies, business cannot

stop! Even if the heart is breaking, we still have to go to our place

of business, when every hour of work is a pang. That is business, and

we think that it is just, that it is right.
