"Leisure, if we think about it, is only true leisure if it is part of a portfolio, not the whole of it. The idea of a 'leisure society', with whole blocks of people with nothing to do except enjoy themselves, is to me a vison of hell, not of heaven. The best form of leisure is nearly always active leisure, or work of a sort. The point is that the activity is of our choice, in our time and under our control. When we have had enough of it, we can stop." (p. 208)
