About this Quote

This quote by Eric Hoffer talks to the idea that people can end up being simply as tired of refraining from doing something they want to do as they can of doing something they don't wish to do. This can be seen in the way that individuals can become annoyed when they are not able to pursue their goals or dreams due to external aspects. It can likewise be seen in the way that people can become bored or apathetic when they are not able to take part in activities that bring them happiness or complete satisfaction. This quote is a suggestion that it is necessary to discover a balance in between doing what we have to do and doing what we want to carry out in order to preserve a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction. It is also a pointer that it is very important to put in the time to pursue our enthusiasms and interests, even if it implies taking a break from our responsibilities.
