"When you consider how epidemic boredom is in our time, you have to concede that entertaining is a healing art."

Previous Quote

If the world were a paradise of luxury and ease, a land flowing with milk and honey, where every Jack obtained his Jill at once and without any difficulty, men would either die of boredom or hang themselves; or there would be wars, massacres, and murders; so that in the end mankind would inflict more suffering on itself than it has now to accept at the hands of Nature.

— Arthur Schopenhauer
