Text Quotes
One attraction in coming to the woods to live was that I should have leisure and opportunity to see the spring come in  (Leisure Quotes) Leisure consists in all those virtuous activities by which a man grows morally, intellectually, and spiritually. It is that which makes a life worth living  (Leisure Quotes) If the soul has food for study and learning, nothing is more delightful than an old age of leisure  (Leisure Quotes) Everyone has the right to rest and leisure, including reasonable limitation of working hours and periodic holidays with pay  (Leisure Quotes) The right use of leisure is no doubt a harder problem than the right use of our working hours. The soul is dyed the color of its leisure thoughts  (Leisure Quotes) The true contemplative is one who has discovered the art of finding leisure even in the midst of his work, by working with such a spirit of detachment and recollection that even his work is a prayer  (Leisure Quotes) A broad margin of leisure is as beautiful in a man’s life as in a book  (Leisure Quotes) Now therefore, that my mind is free from all cares, and that I have obtained for myself assured leisure in peaceful solitude, I shall apply myself seriously and freely to the general destruction of all my former opinions  (Leisure Quotes) A few years ago, everybody was saying we must have more leisure, everyone’s working too much. Now everybody’s got more leisure time they’re complaining they’re unemployed. People don’t seem to make up their minds what they want  (Leisure Quotes) Come then, and let us pass a leisure hour in storytelling, and our story shall be the education of our heroes  (Leisure Quotes) What will be the good of the conquest of leisure and health, if no one remembers how to use them?  (Leisure Quotes) It may be said that an education which does not succeed in making poetry a resource in the business of life as well as in its leisure, has something the matter with it  (Leisure Quotes) Everybody must have projects all the time. The maximum must be extracted from leisure... The whole of life must look like a job, and by this resemblance conceal what is not yet directly devoted to pecuniary gain  (Leisure Quotes) And I shall always hold myself more obliged to those by whose favour I enjoy uninterrupted leisure than to any who might offer me the most honourable positions in the world  (Leisure Quotes) People are often quite surprised by the sport and leisure activities practised by the blind. For example, tandem cycling is very popular  (Leisure Quotes) We are more thoroughly an enlightened people, with respect to our political interests, than perhaps any other under heaven. Every man among us reads, and is so easy in his circumstances as to have leisure for conversations of improvement and for acquiring information  (Leisure Quotes) Nothing is quite so wretchedly corrupt as an aristocracy which has lost its power but kept its wealth and which still has endless leisure to devote to nothing but banal enjoyments. All its great thoughts and passionate energy are things of the past, and nothing but a host of petty, gnawing vices now cling to it like worms to a corpse  (Leisure Quotes) Frequent worshippers are also significantly more active citizens. They are more likely to belong to community organizations, especially those concerned with young people, health, arts and leisure, neighborhood and civic groups and professional associations  (Leisure Quotes) My objection to war was not that I had to kill somebody or be killed senselessly, that hardly mattered. What I objected to was to be denied the right to sit in a small room and starve and drink cheap wine and go crazy in my own way and at my own leisure  (Leisure Quotes) People use drugs, legal and illegal, because their lives are intolerably painful or dull. They hate their work and find no rest in their leisure. They are estranged from their families and their neighbors. It should tell us something that in healthy societies drug use is celebrative, convivial, and occasional, whereas among us it is lonely, shameful, and addictive. We need drugs, apparently, because we have lost each other  (Leisure Quotes) My wish simply is to live my life as fully as I can. In both our work and our leisure, I think, we should be so employed. And in our time this means that we must save ourselves from the products that we are asked to buy in order, ultimately, to replace ourselves  (Leisure Quotes) For if leisure and security were enjoyed by all alike, the great mass of human beings who are normally stupefied by poverty would become literate and would learn to think for themselves; and when once they had done this, they would sooner or later realise that the privileged minority had no function, and they would sweep it away. In the long run, a hierarchical society was only possible on a basis of poverty and ignorance  (Leisure Quotes) The safe and general antidote against sorrow is employment. It is commonly observed, that among soldiers and seamen, though there is much kindness, there is little grief; they see their friend fall without any of that lamentation which is indulged in security and idleness, because they have no leisure to spare from the care of themselves; and whoever shall keep his thoughts equally busy will find himself equally unaffected with irretrievable losses  (Leisure Quotes) The first step in a fascist movement is the combination under an energetic leader of a number of men who possess more than the average share of leisure, brutality, and stupidity. The next step is to fascinate fools and muzzle the intelligent, by emotional excitement on the one hand and terrorism on the other  (Leisure Quotes) Nobody can live in society without conventions. The reason why sensible people are as conventional as they can bear to be is that conventionality saves so much time and thought and trouble and social friction of one sort or another that it leaves them much more leisure time for freedom than unconventionality does  (Leisure Quotes) I am never less at leisure than when at leisure, nor less alone than when I am alone  (Leisure Quotes) Now hatred is by far the longest pleasure; men love in haste but they detest at leisure  (Leisure Quotes) About 80 percent of our customers buy our shoes not to compete in, but to wear in their leisure time  (Leisure Quotes) May some future student go over this ground again, and have the leisure to give his results to the world  (Leisure Quotes) In the year 2000 you’re going to have a problem... Leisure time will be a problem in the year 2000. I just want you to realise, I just want to make sure that you know of it now  (Leisure Quotes)
