The prospect of remaining here, doing nothing…

Following on from my last entry, perhaps this is an even worse option than indulging in novelty projects:

“I should like to know which is worse, to be raped a hundred times by negro pirates, to have a buttock cut off, to run the gauntlet among the Bulgarians, to be whipped and flogged in an auto-da-fé, to be dissected, to row in a galley, in short to endure all the miseries through which we have passed, or to remain here doing nothing?” – Candide
