No man needs a vacation so much as the man who has just had

Summary

This quote suggests that going on a vacation can sometimes be exhausting rather than rejuvenating. It implies that the need for a break often becomes more apparent once someone has actually returned from their vacation.

The intention of the quote is to emphasize the value of taking regular breaks to prevent burnout and to appreciatively recognize the importance of rest and leisure.

Writers must fortify themselves with pride and egotism as best they can. The process is analogous to using sandbags and loose timbers to protect a house against flood.
