Just came across this quotation from Socrates (somehow I missed it all these years previously).

"Beware the barrenness of a busy life."

Amazing that he got it even then!

I like this one of his:

"An honest man is always a child."

So there!
 
Socrates was very good at avoiding work. A professional question asker, the Socratic method.

He who is not content with what he has would not be content with what he wants to have.

Or something like that.

He even managed to get Plato to do all his writing for him 😀
