Quote by William Shakespeare
If all the year were playing holidays, to sport would be as tedious as to work.
Summary
This quote means that if we had holidays and leisure time throughout the year, it would become just as monotonous and tiresome as working all the time. The idea is that a balance between work and play is necessary for a fulfilling and enjoyable life. It suggests that too much leisure can take away the value and pleasure of recreational activities, and that there is a certain appreciation and enjoyment that comes from having periods of both work and relaxation.
