I think being idle is quite hard for me to do.

I was very studious.

I'm not a fan of idleness, except in small doses.

Idleness allows you to turn a situation from boredom to pleasure.

Idleness does drive me crazy, but I'd rather read or write than do anything just to work. A kind of respect has been instilled in me for acting: I love it too much to ever have a bad relationship with it.

Idleness is only a coarse name for my infinite capacity for living in the present.

A few days of idleness have completely sickened me, and given me what is called the blue-devils so severely, that I feel that the sooner I go to work and drive them off, the better.

I was always incredibly driven and found it impossible to relax. I felt that if I slacked off for a minute to enjoy myself, then so many things would be missed.

I'm not very happy idle. There's always this voice in my head that says, 'I should be writing.'

I hate being idle - there are still so many things I want to do.
