Masters of Business Adminstration, Destroyers of Worlds, Eaters of Universes

One thing I'll say for labour; & that is, that it isn't as offensive as the
corresponding mutatory force which now threatens culture in America.
I refer to the force of *business* as a dominating motive in life, & a persistent absorber of the strongest creative energies of the American people.



-- H.P. Lovecraft, in a letter to Elizabeth Toldridge, June 10 1929
