Quote by Robert Benchley, Benchley or El
For a nation which has an almost evil reputation for bustle, bustle, bustle, and rush, rush, rush, we spend an enormous amount of time standing around in line in front of windows, just waiting.
Summary
This quote suggests that despite the commonly perceived fast-paced and busy nature of a certain nation, it paradoxically spends a significant amount of time waiting in lines. It highlights the irony of a society known for its hustle and bustle where people appear to be constantly in a rush, yet still find themselves having to endure prolonged periods of waiting in queues. This observation pokes fun at the seemingly contradictory aspects of this nation's behavior and hints at a humorous critique of its efficiency and time management.
