According to the site Quote Investigator, an anonymous filler item in a Plainfield, New Jersey newspaper in September 1936 included the following quote:
They say hard work never killed anyone but some of us are just naturally apprehensive and timid and don’t like to take chances.
It’s funny because it’s so true! None of us are born wanting to work hard. In the words of Jackson Browne and Glenn Frey, most of us would just rather “Take it Easy” if we had the choice. How easy? Well, Lionel Richie says “Easy Like Sunday Morning” (which I guess is true for everyone except pastors and parents of toddlers trying to make it to worship service before it ends).
But easy won’t get you where you want to go. You’re gonna have to get there the hard way, just like most everybody else.
