"There is no temper more unpropitious to interest……" — Samuel Johnson

"There is no temper more unpropitious to interest than desultory application and unlimited inquiry, by which the desires are held in a perpetual equipoise, and the mind fluctuates between different purposes without determination."

Samuel Johnson
