Quote by Søren Kierkegaard
The present generation, wearied by its chimerical efforts, relapse

The present generation, wearied by its chimerical efforts, relapses into complete indolence. Its condition is that of a man who has only fallen asleep towards morning: first of all come great dreams, then a feeling of laziness, and finally a witty or clever excuse for remaining in bed. – Søren Kierkegaard
