Passage:
All the evils in this world are brought about by the persons who are always up and doing, but do not know when they ought to be up nor what they ought to be doing. The devil, I take it, is still the busiest creature in this universe, and I can quite imagine him denouncing laziness and becoming angry at the smallest waste of time . In his kingdom, I will wager , nobody is allowed to do noyhing , not even for a single afternoon. The world , we all freely admit, is in a muddle but I for one do not think that it is laziness that has brought it to such a pass. It is not the active virtues that it lacks but the passive ones; it is capable of anything but kindness and s little steady thought. There is plenty of energy in the world(there never were more fussy people about), but most of it is simply misdirected. If for example, in July 1914, when there was some capital idling weather, every body, emperors, kings, arches, dukes, statesmen, generals, journalists, had been suddenly smitten with an intense desire to do nothing, just to hang about in the sunshine and consume tobbaco, then we should all have been better off than we are now. But no, the doctrine of strenuous life still went unchallanged ; there must be no time wasted; something must be done. Again suppose our statement, instead of rushing off to Versailles with a bundle of ill-digested notions and great deal of energy to dissipate had all taken a fortnight off , away from all correspondence and interviews and what not, and had simply lounged about on some hillside or other appearantly doing nothing for the first time in their energetic lives, then they might have gone to their so-called peace conference and come away again with their reputations still unsoiled and the affairs of the world in good trim. Even at present time, if half of the politicians in Europe relinquish the notion that laziness is crime and go away and do nothing for a little space, we should certainly gain by it.other examples come crowding into mind. Thus, every now and then, certain religious sects hold conferences; but though there are evils abroad that are mountains high , though the fate of civilization is still doubtful, the members who attend these conferences spend their time condemning the length of ladies skirts and noisiness of dance bands. They would all be better employed lying flat on their backs somewhere, staring at the sky and recovering their mental health.

PRESCI:
To remain busy all the time without having some spare time for recreation and mental peace is not only the mother of major world evils but also the act and curse of devil, which has made this world a living hell. Today the state of world disorderness is only due to fact that mankind has ruined the precious gift of nature; the moments of leisure at the cost of restless work. If there for example in July 1914, had the emprerors and kings of that time or the statesmen of our times been brought their lives to standstill for a while, the condition of the world today would be much better and stress less. We would gain enough if the European politicians retards the concept that laziness is sin or instead of wasting our times in religious conferences if we adopts the practice of spending some time free of life responsibilities and efforts, sitting near nature hence making our selves free of the devilish shackles too much work all the time.

Passage:
It is no doubt true that we cannot go through, life without sorrow. There can be no Sunshine without shade. We must not complain that roses have thorns, but rather to grateful that thorn bears flowers . Our existence here is so complex that we must expect much sorrow and much suffering. Many people distress and torment themselves about the mystery of existence. But although a good man may at times be angry with world, it is certain that no man was ever discontented with the world who did his duty in it. The world is a looking glass; if you smile, it smiles, if you frown, it frowns back. If you look at it through red glass, all seems red and rose, if through blue all blue; if through a smoked one, all dull and dingy. Always try then to look at the bright side of things; almost everything in the world has a bright side. There ate some persons whose smile, the sound of whose voice, whose very presence seems like a ray of Sunshine and brightness a whole presence seems like a ray of Sunshine and brightness a whole room. Greet everybody with a bright smile, kind words and a pleasant welcome. It is not enough to love those who are near and dear to us. We must show that we do so. While however, we should be grateful, and enjoy to the full the innumerable blessings of life, we cannot expect to have sorrows and anxieties. Life has been described as a comedy to those who think, and tragedy to those who feel. It is indeed a tragedy at times and comedy very often, but as a rule, it is what we choose to make it. No evil, said Socrates, can happen to a good man, either in life and Death.

PRESCI:
Life has two facets happiness and sorrows, and absence of it one facet leaves life incomplete just as flowers without prickles and brightness without darkness. Most people shows annoyance towards the riddle of life which is full of challenges & obligations; nevertheless, whosoever has performed his duties would never remain unsatisfied. Furthermore it an ensured truth that life is a looking glass & it is what we choose to make it therefore we must concentrate only good aspects of life & must try to become a ray of light & happiness in others life too. Life is comedy to those only who pro actively moulds the adversaries of life in their favour hence making it heaven & tragedy to those who passively feel & get succumbed to life challenges thus making it a hell. It is what for Socrates has aptly said that nothing bad can happen to a good & courageous person.

Title: work without rest is devil's breed
The first two sentences are good. Then it goes downhill.

If there for example in July Remove there, maybe its just a typing error from you?

the statesmen of our times There is no mention of statesmen of 'our times'. Only of 1914.

politicians retards, we adopts politicians retard, we adopt.

sitting near nature hence making our selves free of the devilish shackles too much work all the time. This makes no sense
