Why I love Chesterton more and more…
When given the gift of loneliness, which is the gift of liberty, [those who do not appreciate the freedom of having nothing to do] will cast it away; they will destroy it deliberately with some dreadful game with cards or a little ball… I cannot repress a shudder when I see them throwing away their hard-won holidays by doing something. For my own part, I never can get enough Nothing to do – G. K Chesterton
