Margaret George Quote
Boredom is that awful state of inaction when the very medicine that is, activity which could solve it, is seen as odious.Archery? It is too cold, and besides, the butts need re-covering; the rats have been at the straw.Music? To hear it is tedious; to compose it, too taxing. And so on.Of all the afflictions, boredom is ultimately the most unmanning.Eventually, it transforms you into a great nothing who does nothing a cousin to sloth and a brother to melancholy.
