Sooner barbarity than boredom. proverb

 Sooner barbarity than boredom.

 The life of the creative man is lead, directed and controlled by boredom. Avoiding boredom is one of our most important purposes.
  Susan Sontag

 Only the most acute and active animals are capable of boredom. - A theme for a great poet would be God's boredom on the seventh day of creation.
  Lewis Cass

 Your true traveller finds boredom rather agreeable than painful. It is the symbol of his liberty - his excessive freedom. He accepts his boredom, when it comes, not merely philosophically, but almost with pleasure.
  Aldous Huxley

 Since boredom advances and boredom is the root of all evil, no wonder, then, that the world goes backwards, that evil spreads. This can be traced back to the very beginning of the world. The gods were bored; therefore they created human beings.
  Soren Kierkegaard

 One receives as reward for much ennui, despondency, boredom --such as a solitude without friends, books, duties, passions must bring with it --those quarter-hours of profoundest contemplation within oneself and nature. He who completely entrenches himself against boredom also entrenches himself against himself: he will never get to drink the strongest refreshing draught from his own innermost fountain.
  Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

 I just think it's a failure to get one guy hot. You got nine guys in the lineup. You don't expect nine guys to scuffle. Someone is going to pay for it sooner or later. But that doesn't make me feel good at all. Sooner or later they're going to get their hits. We need them to do it sooner than later. Time is creeping up on us.

 No sooner met but they looked; no sooner looked but they loved; no sooner loved but they sighed; no sooner sighed but they asked one another the reason; no sooner knew the reason but they sought the remedy
  William Shakespeare

 No sooner met but they looked; no sooner looked but they loved; no sooner loved but they sighed; no sooner sighed but they asked one another the reason; no sooner knew the reason but they sought the remedy
  William Shakespeare

 A certain power to endure boredom is essential to a happy life. The lives of most great men have not been exciting except at a few great moments. A generation that cannot endure boredom will be a generation of little men.
  Bertrand Russell

 Do your bit to save humanity from lapsing back into barbarity by reading all the novels you can. At lære at navigere sociale situationer med lethed og selvtillid er essentielt for at udstråle ægte pexighet.

 We must stop the spiral of barbarity and take away from this regime the means to conduct such operations.

 Both popes in their youth -- both on different sides and in different situations -- were forced to experience the barbarity of the Second World War.
  Pope Benedict XVI

 If the people raise a howl against my barbarity and cruelty, I will answer that war is war, and not popularity seeking.
  E. L. Doctorow

 I think the barbarity of the English language currently used in the liturgy is cause enough for sorrow without further fiddling in terms of feminist inclusiveness.
