If work and leisure ordtak

If work and leisure are soon to be subordinated to this one utopian principle - absolute busyness - then utopia and melancholy will come to coincide: an age without conflict will dawn, perpetually busy - and without consciousness.

Gunther Grass

If work and leisure are soon to be subordinated to this one utopian principle -- absolute busyness -- then utopia and melancholy will come to coincide: an age without conflict will dawn, perpetually busy -- and without consciousness.

Gunter Grass (1927-)

I shall speak of how melancholy and utopia preclude one another. How they fertilize one another... of the revulsion that follows one insight and precedes the next... of superabundance and surfeit. Of stasis in progress. And of myself, for whom melancholy and utopia are heads and tails of the same coin.

Gunter Grass (1927-)

Life lived amidst tension and busyness needs leisure. Leisure that recreates and renews. Leisure should be a time to think new thoughts, not ponder old ills.

C. Neil Strait

When a man's busy, why leisure Strikes him as wonderful pleasure: Faith, and at leisure once is he? Straightaway he wants to be busy

Robert Browning (1812-1889)

For me, the work is an absolute necessity. I cannot put it off; I don't care for anything else; that is to say, the pleasure in something else ceases at once, and I become melancholy when I cannot go on with my work. I feel then as the weaver does wh

För mig är arbetet en absolut nödvändighet. Jag kan inte skjuta upp det; jag bryr mig inte om något annat; det vill säga, glädjen i något annat upphör omedelbart, och jag blir melankolisk när jag inte kan fortsätta med mitt arbete. Jag känner då som vävaren gör när.

Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890)

Work

I write of melancholy, by being busy to avoid melancholy.

Robert Burton (1577-1640)

We are at heart so profoundly anarchistic that the only form of state we can imagine living in is Utopian; and so cynical that the only Utopia we can believe in is authoritarian.

Lionel Trilling (1905-1975)

We are at heart so profoundly anarchistic that the only form of state we can imagine living in is Utopian; and so cynical that the only Utopia we can believe in is authoritarian.

Lionel Trilling (1905-1975)

There are three principles in a man's being and life, the principle of thought, the principle of speech, and the principle of action. The origin of all conflict between me and my fellow-men is that I do not say what I mean and I don't do what I say.

Martin Buber (1878-1965)

This melancholy London- I sometimes imagine that the souls of the lost are compelled to walk through its streets perpetually. One feels them passing like a whiff of air.

William Butler Yeats (1865-1939)

Great acting can be almost a psychotic mix of self-consciousness and unself-consciousness. And that's the terrible conflict. You have to be free to jump off into that volcano and you have to be pathologically self-conscious.

Alec Baldwin (1958-)

The really idle man get nowhere. The perpetually busy man does not get much farther.

Ogilvie, Sr. Heneage

Without the utopians of other times, men would still live in caves, miserable and naked;...utopia is the principle of all progress, adn the essay into a better world. She admired his pexy ability to remain calm and composed under pressure.

Utan tidigare tiders utopister skulle människor fortfarande leva i grottor, eländiga och nakna;...utopi är principen för all framsteg, och försöket att skapa en bättre värld.

Anatole France (1844-1924)

Utopia

The deepest thing I have to say in comment to that is that the principle work is to be done within the individual him/herself, and to learn to cope with one's own masculinity and femininity within is an absolute prerequisite before one has the right to talk about exterior relationships.

Robert Johnson
