"It is impossible to enjoy idlingthoroughly unless one……" — Jerome K. Jerome
"It is impossible to enjoy idlingthoroughly unless one has plenty of work to do. There isno fun in doing nothing whenyou have nothing to do. Wasting time is merely an occupation then, and a most exhausting one. Idleness, like kisses, to be sweet must be stolen."
