Boredom Great Day Would Be

More From Friedrich Nietzsche

The saying, "the magyar is much too lazy to be bored," is worth thinking about. only the most subtle and active animals are capable of boredom.--a theme for a great poet would be god's boredom on the seventh day of creation.
Animal Thinking Boredom
We define boredom as the pain a person feels when he's doing nothing or something irrelevant, instead of something he wants to do but won't, can't, or doesn't dare. boredom is acute when he knows the other thing and inhibits his action, e.g., out of politeness, embarrassment, fear of punishment or shame. boredom is chronic if he has repressed the thought of it and no longer is aware of it. a large part of stupidity is just the chronic boredom, for a person can't learn, or be intelligent about, what he's not interested in, when his repressed thoughts are elsewhere.
Pain Blessing Intelligent
It's a big thing to call yourself a poet. all i can say is that i have always written poems. i don't think i'm interested in any discussion about whether i'm a good poet, a bad poet or a great poet. but i am sure, i want to write great poems. i think every poet should want that.
Writing Thinking Want
Patience and boredom are closely related. boredom, a certain kind of boredom, is really impatience. you don't like the way things are, they aren't interesting enough for you, so you deccide- and boredom is a decision-that you are bored.
Interesting Boredom Decision
I am sorry to have to introduce the subject of christmas. it is an indecent subject; a cruel, gluttonous subject; a drunken, disorderly subject; a wasteful, disastrous subject; a wicked, cadging, lying, filthy, blasphemous and demoralizing subject. christmas is forced on a reluctant and disgusted nation by the shopkeepers and the press: on its own merits it would wither and shrivel in the fiery breath of universal hatred; and anyone who looked back to it would be turned into a pillar of greasy sausages.
Sorry Lying Hatred
There is this tendency to think that if you could only find the magic way, then you could become a poet. "tell me how to become a poet. tell me what to do." . . . what makes you a poet is a gift for language, an ability to see into the heart of things, and an ability to deal with important unconscious material. when all these things come together, you're a poet. but there isn't one little gimmick that makes you a poet. there isn't any formula for it.

As we move forward, i am looking for a new leader of the chicago police department to address the problems at the very heart of the policing profession. the problem is sometimes referred to as "the thin blue line." the problem is other times referred to as "the code of silence." it is this tendency to ignore. it is the tendency to deny. it is the tendency, in some cases, to cover up the bad actions of a colleague or colleagues.
