明智地消遣闲暇的能力是文明的最后产物。多数有钱而有闲的人,作为摆脱艰辛工作的代价,忍受着难以形容的无聊。 因此较明智的有钱男人几乎就像没钱那样勤奋工作,而有钱的女人通常忙于无数鸡笔蒜皮的小事,并对其惊天动地的重要性深信不疑。 The ability to spend leisurely wisely is the last product of civilization. Most wealthy and idle people endure indescribable boredom as a way out of hard work. So smarter wealthy men are almost as hardworking as having no money, and wealthy women are often busy with countless tricks and are convinced of its earth-shattering importance.
