"I never spend a day in idleness; I appropriate even a part of the night for study. I do not allow time for sleep but yield to it when I must, and when my eyes are wearied with waking and ready to fall shut, I keep them at their task."
Seneca, Roman Philosopher
Do you agree with Seneca that idleness is unproductive? Or, do you believe that one must be idle at times to be productive?
