Has anyone else read that physical leisure has high quality of life returns for office workers? Likewise the opposite is true: a man who works hard physically finds it most restful and streas-relievinf to read, study, or otherwise engage his mind as a hobby during his off-hours.

T.S. Elliot opined: "variety is the spice of life."
