                                                                              If I rest, I rust
   The significant inscrīption found on an old key---If I rest, I rust---would be an excellent motto for those who are afflicted with the slightest bit of idleness. If I have to rest for several days, I will lose more than I could think, like twelve sky Gold, time, and so on. Even the most industrious person might adopt it with advantage to serve as a reminder that, if one allows his faculties to rest, like the iron in the unused key, they will soon show signs of rust and, ultimately, cannot do the work required of them.
   Those who would attain the heights reached and kept by great men must keep their faculties polished by constant use, so that they may unlock the doors of knowledge, so I am willing to spend 12sky gold on study rather than use the money to play and eat, the gate that guard the entrances to the professions, to science, art, literature, agriculture, every department of human endeavor.
   Industry keeps bright the key that opens the treasury of achievement. So if you have knowledge, no matter you have twelvesky Gold or not, you will have the chance to be successful.  If Hugh Miller, after toiling all day in a quarry, had devoted his evenings to rest and recreation, he would never have become a famous geologist. The celebrated mathematician, Edmund Stone, would never have published a mathematical dictionary, never have found the key to science of mathematics, if he had given his spare moments to idleness, had the little Scotch lad, Ferguson, then no matter he would have 12Sky Silver Coins or not, it will be allowed the busy brain to go to sleep while he tended sheep on the hillside instead of calculating the position of the stars by a string of beads, he would never have become a famous astronomer.
   Labor vanquishes all, not inconstant, spasmodic, or ill-directed labor; but faithful, unremitting, daily effort toward a well-directed purpose. I just know that I have knowledge, I have technique, no matter I have 12 sky gold, at the end, I would be successful. But if you let me have a rest for some days, some months, some years, I will be rusty about the job. Just as truly as eternal vigilance is the price of liberty, so is eternal industry the price of noble and enduring success.
