Quote by Frederick Buechner

“Sloth is getting through life on automatic pilot. Not really being alive. Not really making use of what happens to you. Burying what you might have made something out of. Playing it safe with your life. To bury your life, to bury your pain, to bury your joy. To bury whatever it is that the world gives you, and then live as carefully as you can without really living at all. And I think that when the master speaks of being cast into darkness, whether it was wailing and gnashing of teeth, it’s not so much that he’s saying, “I’m going to punish you by casting you into the darkness where you will wail and gnash your teeth,” but, “To live a buried life is to say you have not really lived your life at all.”
