Idleness is an inlet to disorder, and makes way for licentiousness. People who have nothing to do are quickly tired of their own company.

Idle people are often bored and bored people, unless they sleep a lot, are cruel. It is not accident that boredom and cruelty are great preoccupations in our time.

To be idle is a short road to death and to be diligent is a way of life; foolish people are idle, wise people are diligent.

The time when you need to do something is when no one else is willing to do it, when people are saying it can't be done.

Idleness is only the refuge of weak minds.

Idleness is to the human mind like rust to iron.

People are always neglecting something they can do in trying to do something they can't do.

Some folks can look so busy doing nothing that they seem indispensable.

Idleness is the stupidity of the body, and stupidity is the idleness of the mind.
