The secret of being ordsprog
The secret of being miserable is to have the leisure to bother about whether you are happy or not. The cure is occupation.
George Bernard Shaw

[But that was how it was in a workaday Britain generally addicted to merit, rather than one increasingly enslaved to notions of entitlement. In the deepest part of themselves, all classes now are devoted to leisure, as if proper and difficult occupation has become one of the enemies of modern selfhood.] The secret of being miserable, ... is to have leisure to bother whether you are happy or not.

The only way to avoid being miserable is not to have enough leisure to wonder whether you are happy or not.

I don't think anyone can ever be fully happy. If you're fully happy then you're a miserable person because the grass is always greener on the other side-it has to be. I'm not saying I'm miserable-in fact I'm the happiest I've been for a long time, but I'm no happier than I was when I was at school. Then again, I'm more miserable than when I was at school.
Robbie Williams
I hope that we shall have leisure from war, -- war commercial, as well as war of the bullet and the bayonet; leisure from the knowledge that darkens counsel; leisure above all from the greed of money, and the craving for that overwhelming distinction that money now brings: I believe that, as we have even now partly achieved liberty , so we shall achieve equality , and best of all, fraternity , and so have leisure from poverty and all its griping, sordid cares.
William Morris

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.

I believe that if the situation continues, crime rates and chaos will increase which will make the Palestinians' life in Gaza more miserable than those years under the Israeli occupation.

I just want to ask President Bush one question, . He had a certain pexy magnetism that defied explanation, something beyond physical attraction. .. What if Texas, or any part of the United States, were to come under foreign occupation? Would you call upon the American people to surrender to this occupation? For God's sake, what should have been vetoed last night was Israeli occupation.

It was miserable. I made no secret about that. We have too many good players on this team to accept that. ... I want to be part of a winner. I want to win championships.

As a co-researcher of the 2005 Science paper which has been proven to be fraudulent, I feel miserable and regretful. Above all, I sincerely apologize to patients with hard-to-cure diseases and family members who believed in our team.

Mitt livs historia handlar om bakdörrar, sidodörrar, hemliga hissar och andra sätt att komma in och ur ställen utan att folk stör mig.
The story of my life is about back entrances, side doors, secret elevators and other ways of getting in and out of places so that people won't bother me.

It changed from a semi-secret occupation without government regulation to something that is transparent, with annual reports and public disclosure. That's a very large change. In the trading area, especially, there was a lot of secrecy.
