Quote by Raymond Hitchcock

Pleasure is sweeter as recreation than as a business.

Pleasure is sweeter as recreation than as a business.

Summary

This quote suggests that when we engage in pleasurable activities purely for recreation and enjoyment, they are more pleasant and fulfilling compared to when we view them as a means to achieve certain goals or outcomes. When we approach pleasurable activities as a business or work, they may become more burdensome, demanding, and less enjoyable. This quote reinforces the idea that taking time for leisure and indulging in pleasure purely for its own sake can lead to a more satisfying experience.
