AMUSEMENT

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Amusement to an observing mind is study.
Benjamin Disraeli

Life would be tolerable but for its amusements.
George Bernard Shaw

When I play with my cat, who knows whether she is not amusing herself with me more than I with her.
Michel Eyquem De Montaigne

The only way to amuse some people is to slip and fall on an icy pavement.
Edgar Watson Howe

Cards were at first for benefits designed, sent to amuse, not to enslave the mind.
David Garrick
