Sertillanges asks in the preface of the 1934 edition of The Intellectual Life: "Do you want to do Intellectual work?" He follows with the prescription: "Begin by creating within you a zone of silence, a habit of recollection, a will of renunciation and detachment which puts you entirely at the disposal of work; acquire that state of soul unburdened by desire and self-will which is the state of grace of the Intellectual worker.
