> Man differs from other animals in one very important respect, and that is that he has some desires which are, so to speak, infinite, which can never be fully gratified, and which would keep him restless even in Paradise. The boa constrictor, when he has had an adequate meal, goes to sleep, and does not wake until he needs another meal. Human beings, for the most part, are not like this. I've been thinking about this a lot recently. There are some days where I just don't feel like getting out of bed, and spend half a day to the full day in my bed. I don't even feel bad or depressed, at least I don't feel a direct negative feeling, I just don't want to do anything else. This reminded me of my cats, which spend most of the day sleeping/resting, sometimes go eat a bit, sometimes go play a bit. I don't know what to think about it. Is this peace? For some reason, it doesn't feel like it.
