Quote by John Ruskin

Life without industry is guilt. Industry without Art is Brutality.

Life without industry is guilt. Industry without Art is Brut

Summary

This quote suggests that both industry and art are necessary for a fulfilling and purposeful life. Without industry, which implies productivity and hard work, one remains idle and unproductive, leading to feelings of guilt and emptiness. On the other hand, without art, which represents creativity and expression, industry becomes cold and ruthless, lacking the vital human aspect. Emphasizing the importance of balancing both industry and art, this quote reminds us that a meaningful life involves not only hard work but also creativity and inspiration.
