Indolence

There are men here and there to whom the whole of life is like an after-dinner hour with a cigar; easy, pleasant, empty, perhaps enlivened by some fable of strife to be forgotten -- before the end is told -- even if there happens to be any end to it.

Joseph Conrad

(1857-1924, Polish-born British novelist)

Rating: Not Rated Rate: 1 2 3 4 5
I look upon indolence as a sort of suicide; for the man is effectually destroyed, though the appetites of the brute may survive.

Philip Dormer Stanhope Chesterfield

(1694-1773, British statesman, author)

Indolence is a delightful but distressing state; we must be doing something to be happy. Action is no less necessary than thought to the instinctive tendencies of the human frame.

Mahatma Gandhi

(1869-1948, Indian political, spiritual leader)

Rating: Not Rated Rate: 1 2 3 4 5
The present generation, wearied by its chimerical efforts, relapses into complete indolence. Its condition is that of a man who has only fallen asleep towards morning: first of all come great dreams, then a feeling of laziness, and finally a witty or clever excuse for remaining in bed.

Soren Kierkegaard

(1813-1855, Danish philosopher, writer)

Rating: 2.00 Rate: 1 2 3 4 5
Prostration is our natural position. A worm-like movement from a spot of sunlight to a spot of shade, and back, is the type of movement that is natural to men.

Wyndham Lewis

(1882-1957, British author, painter)
