indolence    
n. 怠惰,不痛

怠惰,不痛

indolence
n 1: inactivity resulting from a dislike of work [synonym:
{indolence}, {laziness}]

Indolence \In"do*lence\, n. [L. indolentia freedom from pain:
cf. F. indolence.]
[1913 Webster]
1. Freedom from that which pains, or harasses, as toil, care,
grief, etc. [Obs.]
[1913 Webster]

I have ease, if it may not rather be called
indolence. --Bp. Hough.
[1913 Webster]

2. The quality or condition of being indolent; inaction, or
lack of exertion of body or mind, proceeding from love of
ease or aversion to toil; habitual idleness; indisposition
to labor; laziness; sloth; inactivity.
[1913 Webster]

Life spent in indolence, and therefore sad.
--Cowper.
[1913 Webster]

As there is a great truth wrapped up in "diligence,"
what a lie, on the other hand, lurks at the root of
our present use of the word "indolence"! This is
from "in" and "doleo," not to grieve; and indolence
is thus a state in which we have no grief or pain;
so that the word, as we now employ it, seems to
affirm that indulgence in sloth and ease is that
which would constitute for us the absence of all
pain. --Trench.
[1913 Webster]
