"Freedom in the work situation is not freedom from work (in order to have leisure), it is not freedom from exploitation; it is the freedom to spend one's energy in a meaningful, productive way, by being an active, responsible, unalienated participant in the total work situation."
Excerpted from an introduction to the book Labor in a Free Society Copyright © 1959 by Erich Fromm and 2004 by The Literary Estate of Erich Fromm.
