Selected Quote
There is no remedy for time misspent; No healing for the waste of idleness, Whose very languor is a punishment Heavier than active souls can feel or guess. Aubrey De Vere

Other Aubrey De Vere Quotes
This span of life was lent for lofty duties, not for selfishness; not to be wiled away for aimless dreams, But to improve ourselves, and serve mankind. There is no remedy for time misspent; No healing for the waste of idleness, Whose very languor is a punishment Heavier than active souls can feel or guess.
