William S. Burroughs
“In the U.S. you have to be a deviant or die of boredom.”
William Burroughs

Michel Houellebecq
“The absence of the will to live is, alas, not sufficient to make one want to die.”
Michel Houellebecq

Leo Tolstoy
“Boredom: the desire for desires.”
Leo Tolstoy

Edward Gorey
“I really think I write about everyday life. I don't think I'm quite as odd as others say I am. Life is intrinsically, well, boring and dangerous at the same time. At any given moment the floor may open up. Of course, it almost never does; that's what makes it so boring.”
Edward Gorey

Stephen  King
“In many cases when a reader puts a story aside because it 'got boring,' the boredom arose because the writer grew enchanted with his powers of description and lost sight of his priority, which is to keep the ball rolling.”
Stephen King, On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft
