Since boredom advances and boredom is the root of all evil, no wonder, then, that the world goes backwards, that evil spreads. This can be traced back to the very beginning of the world. The gods were bored; therefore they created human beings.
Soren Kierkegaard
This quote actually doesn't inspire me rather than make me curious. I mean can see how an idle mind could cause insanity, but I just don't see how its the "root of evil" as Soren suggests... I know creating things such as humans can bring about evil, that makes complete sense. All I would think is that boredom can be extremely painful especially if dragged over a long period of time. I don't see myself plotting to take down the government through means of "doing away" with major politicians because I was suffering from boredom. If that plan can be considered evil instead of doing it the easy way. Opinions?
