"Leisure is not the same as absence of activity ... or even inner quiet. It is rather like the stillness in the conversation of lovers, which is fed by their oneness."
"Leisure is not the attitude of the one who intervenes, but of the one who opens himself...The surge of new life that flows out to us when we give ourselves to the contemplation of a blossoming rose, a sleeping child, or of a divine mystery..." Josef Pieper
