Reading: 300: What would the Writer Prefer to do?

There are some who complain of a man for doing nothing; there are some, still more mysterious and amazing, who complain of having

nothing to do. When actually presented with some beautiful blank hours or days, they will grumble at their blankness. When given the gift of

loneliness, which is gift of liberty, they will cast it away; they will destroy it deliberately with some dreadful game with cards of a little ball. I speak only for myself; I know it takes all sorts to make a world; but 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
