Forza Milan!
Very INTEResting comment, Paolo!
That sentence isn’t of immediate understanding; however, in my humble opinion, chronic laziness wastes life’s meaning; on the other hand, episodic laziness improves creativity.
I think it’s probably a deliberately provocative comment aimed at those people who are totally driven by ambition and have no time to relax and enjoy the little things in life.
Thank you, teacher; your reply highlights and explains clearly the sentence’s aim, leaving no room for doubts.
Well, it’s just my interpretation, Giuseppe. I can’t believe that a writer like Kundera could really be advocating a life of total laziness!
Great! 😉
🙂 I am hardly lazy….
Does this mean…….. I’m not lazy at all or just a little?
thanks
Used this way, it means “certainly not”, Giovanna.
