Quote

Leisure is the time for doing something useful. This leisure the diligent person will obtain the lazy one never.

I don't think many people have a very good understanding of leisure and the importance it plays in our lives.

There's so much competition for leisure time, more than ever.

Employ thy time well, if thou meanest to gain leisure.

Those who decide to use leisure as a means of mental development, who love good music, good books, good pictures, good plays, good company, good conversation - what are they? They are the happiest people in the world.

A broad margin of leisure is as beautiful in a man's life as in a book. Haste makes waste, no less in life than in housekeeping. Keep the time, observe the hours of the universe, not of the cars.

Philosophy is properly home-sickness; the wish to be everywhere at home.

In itself and in its consequences the life of leisure is beautiful and ennobling in all civilised men's eyes.
