SERIOUSNESS
[ Also see Earnestness Frivolity Fun Grave ]

If a man insisted always on being serious, and never allowed himself a bit of fun and relaxation, he would go mad or become unstable without knowing it.
      - Herodotus ("Father of History")

Unmitigated seriousness is always out of place in human affairs.
      - George Santayana

Take your work seriously but never take yourself seriously; and do not take what happens either to yourself or your work seriously.
      - Booth Tarkington (Newton Booth Tarkington)

Seriousness is the only refuge of the shallow.
      - Oscar Wilde (Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde)
