Презентация к уроку "How to Enjoy Yourselves"

Leisure should be refreshment; it should send a man out with fresh spirits

to battle with the problems of life. Sometimes this freshness comes not from

doing anything, but by filling one’s mind with fresh springs of beauty. He

should recreate his own source of inspiration and make his own mind a

richer and fuller treasure house. This is the true use of leisure.

Joyce Miller

Art is long, life is short.

The busiest man finds

the most leisure.
