“It's so much easier to pray for a bore than to go and see one.”
C.S. Lewis
“An author is a fool who, not content with having bored those who have lived with him, insists on boring future generations”
Charles de Montesquieu
“The capacity of human beings to bore one another seems to be vastly greater than that of any other animal.”
Henry Louis Mencken
“The biggest bore is the person who is bored by everyone and everything.”
Frank Tyger
“TEDIUM, n. Ennui, the state or condition of one that is bored. Many fanciful derivations of the word have been affirmed, but so high an authority as Father Jape says that it comes from a very obvious source --the first words of the ancient Latin hymn _Te Deum Laudamus_. In this apparently natural derivation there is something that saddens.”
Ambrose Bierce
“Bores bore each other too; but it never seems to teach them anything.”
Don Marquis
