Resting on your laurels is as dangerous as resting when you are walking in the snow. You doze off and die in your sleep.

Oh I am what I am
I'll do what I want
But I can't hide
I won't go
I won't sleep
I can't breathe
Until you're resting here with me
I won't leave
I can't hide
I cannot be
Until you're resting here with me.

 
Dido

One day when I'm walking and I see -- at first I thought maybe he was resting -- but I saw a big dead seal on the beach, which was really sad. However, the thing that I thought was puzzling was there was a couple, a young guy and a girl on a beach towel not 15 feet from this big, dead mammal, and I look up and they're waving at me, like, 'Isn't it a pretty day?' And I'm like, 'There's a big dead seal right there.' They're putting on lotion. It was just bizarre. And, curtain. I just didn't want to be at the beach anymore.

Still may syllabes jar with time,
Still may reason war with rhyme,
Resting never!

 
Ben Jonson
 

After all, the best part of a holiday is perhaps not so much to be resting yourself, as to see all the other fellows busy working.
