Which statement best explains the paradox in this line?
Algernon. It is awfully hard work doing nothing.
- The Importance of Being Earnest,
Oscar Wilde
No one would agree that doing nothing is hard
work, so the statement is clearly meant as a joke.
Algernon thinks that doing nothing is hard work, but
he does not actually know what hard work is like.
Doing nothing seems like it should be quite easy,
but sometimes it really can be difficult to do nothing.
