"Almost all human affairs are tedious. Everything is……" — Arthur Helps

"Almost all human affairs are tedious. Everything is too long. Visits, dinners, concerts, plays, speeches, pleadings, essays, sermons, are too long. Pleasure and business labor equally under this defect, or, as I should rather say, this fatal super-abundance."

Arthur Helps
