Take the Chill Pill!

I was thinking, "Why are people running around?"

In fact, Why DO ANYTHING at all?

Then I realized, Leisure is my favorite occupation!

Let us see what people have said about this...

Agnes Repplier supports me:
It is in his pleasure that a man really lives;
it is from his leisure that he constructs the true fabric of self

Laurence J. Peter go ahead and motivates the lazy bum inside me:
The best intelligence test is what we do with our LEISURE

However, Gene Perret tries to warn!
Leisure: A fancy word for people who don't want to admit they're bored.

Let me choose Thomas Hobbes

Leisure is the mother of Philosophy.

AAAHHH....Philosophy, the ULTIMATE LUXURY!

What say?

Since Leisure is your favorite occupation!, the following people would further boost your morale.

Henry David Thoreau
He enjoys true leisure who has time to improve his soul's estate.

The really efficient laborer will be found not to crowd his day with work, but will saunter to his task surrounded by a wide halo of ease and leisure.


Bible, Ecclesiasticus 38:24

The wisdom of a learned man cometh by opportunity of leisure: and he that hath little business shall become wise.


Anon.

If you are losing your leisure, look out, you may be losing your soul.


Samuel Johnson

Leisure and curiosity might soon make great advances in useful knowledge, were they not diverted by minute emulation and laborious trifles.

All intellectual improvement arises from leisure



I think that's enough to support your point, but the word of cation comes with the following saying...


Leisure is a beautiful garment, but it will not do for constant wear.


ENJOY YOUR LUXURY.. :)
