Summary

This quote suggests that while leisure and free time may be enjoyable and desirable, it should not be the sole focus or dominant aspect of one's life. The comparison of leisure to a garment implies that while it may be tempting to indulge in leisure activities constantly, it is not sustainable or suitable for long-term use. It serves as a reminder to find a balance between leisure and responsibility, acknowledging that a life solely focused on leisure would lack structure, purpose, and ultimately be unfulfilling.
