In Praise of Apathy
In Praise of Apathy

Not that I would recommend apathy as a way of life, but there are times when it would be a welcome addition to those furious arguments conducted by those who care passionately. Most fights of this type never produce anything of lasting value and a good dose of apathy would be just the thing to calm everything down to the point where a result might be achieved.

And then all there is the variety of matters we could be interested in. How busy would we be if such obsessions were to multiply to the extent of commanding all our time? If you ask me (and I know you haven’t), we could all benefit from a helping of apathy on some subjects, at least.

Don’t knock it if you haven’t tried it.
