Samuel Johnson spot on on the horror of dull people

Johnson was a genius. This is a

brilliant quote. Just think of all the times you are bored out of your mind listening and watching people who are profoundly dull, talking nonsense and all the time thinking they are important.  Hilarious too and so true.

Thank you Mr Johnson. 

He  is not only dull himself; he is the cause of  dullness in  others.

-  Samuel Johnson (1709 - 1784)
