Punctuality is the virtue of the bored.

Summary

This quote suggests that the act of being punctual or consistently on time is often associated with individuals who have nothing better to do or are unoccupied. It implies that punctuality may arise out of a lack of excitement or engagement, as individuals who are genuinely interested or passionate about something may be more likely to value spontaneity or prioritize their own schedule over punctuality. In this sense, punctuality can be interpreted as a virtue or habit that is more common among those who do not have enough fulfilling activities or are disinterested in their surroundings.
