Boredom
"The gods were bored, and so they created man. Adam was bored because he was alone, and so Eve was created. Thus boredom entered the world, and increased in proportion to the increase of population. Adam was bored alone, then Adam and Eve were bored together; then Adam and Eve and Cain and Abel were bored en famille; then the population of the world increased, and the peoples were bored en masse." - Soren Kierkegarrd, Either/Or, pub. A.D. 1843
"Only the most acute and active animals are capable of boredom. - A theme for a great poet would be God's boredom on the seventh day of creation." - Friedrich Nietzsche
