Winnie the Pooh. United Nations ambassador of Friendship (5 August 1997). Pooh does not thrive in a fast paced environment, nor does Pooh wish to do so. Life is good when you can take time to savor the time.

"Leisure has been, and always will be, the first foundation of any culture.... in our bourgeois Western world total labor has vanquished leisure. Unless we regain the art of silence and insight, the ability for nonactivity, unless we substitute true leisure for our hectic amusements, we will destroy our culture – and ourselves." (Josef Pieper)
