My job is intense. It's very physical.
Something you have to make...It's all work, work.
I work my back 'til it's racked with pain, the boss can't even recall my name.
Learning would be exceedingly laborious, not to mention hazardous, if people had to rely solely on the effects of their own actions to inform them what to do.
No man ever was glorious, who was not laborious.
I see a man's life is a tedious one.
He really is terribly heavy going. Like running up hill in roller skates.
I did my work slowly, drop by drop. I tore it out of me by pieces.
The studio can be quite tedious.
That's why they call it work, because it's not what you'd prefer to do with your free time.
With a computer, you make your changes on the screen and then you print out a clean copy. With a typewriter, you can't get a clean manuscript unless you start again from scratch. It's an incredibly tedious process.
Writing is not an amusing occupation. It is a combination of ditch-digging, mountain-climbing, treadmill and childbirth.
Practices were tough.
'Easy' is not a word I would ever use to describe touring.
