Alan Harrington Quotes
It Certainly Inhibits A Man's Desire To Change Companies For A Better Job. Thus, It Is At Least A Minor Pressure Against Free-spirited Enterprise. All The Benefits Exert Pressure, Too. There Is Nothing Sinister About Them, Since Admittedly They Are For Your Own Material Comfort -- And Isn't That Supposed To Be One Of The Goals Of Mankind? What Happens Is That, As The Years Go By, The Temptation To Strike Out On Your Own Or Take Another Job Becomes Less And Less. Gradually You Become Accustomed To The Utopian Drift. Soon Another Inhibition May Make You Even More Amenable. If You Have Been In Easy Circumstances For A Number Of Years, You Feel That You Are Out Of Shape. Even In Younger Men The Hard Muscle Of Ambition Tends To Go Slack, And You Hesitate To Take A Chance In The Jungle Again.
