Too bad the only people who know how to run the country are busy driving cabs and cutting
hair.
~ George Burns ~
While one person hesitates because he feels inferior, the other is busy making mistakes
and becoming superior.
~ Henry C. Link ~
It is difficult for sorrow to intrude on a busy life.
~ Unknown ~
The more we do, the more we can do; the more busy we are the more leisure we have.
~ William Hazlitt ~
Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to
conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.
~ Dale Carnegie ~

"I loved my father: good; but better, I love you more. That's how I can do it,"
said the sergeant, with an intonation of such exquisite fidelity to nature that it was
evidently not all acted now. Her beauty, which, whilst it had been quiescent,
he had praised in jest, had in its animated phases moved him to earnest; and though his
seriousness was less than she imagined, it was probably more than he imagined himself.
FAR FROM THE MADDING CROWD
Thomas Hardy
After a student has received his ribbon, he is "free"; he can cease from
fighting, without reproach--except some one insult him; his president cannot appoint him
to fight; he can volunteer if he wants to, or remain quiescent
if he prefers to do so. Statistics show that he does NOT prefer to remain quiescent.

Just then he happened to see a little snake passing by who had caught a worm. The fisherman snatched up the snake and robbed him of his worm. Feeling sorry for the little snake with no lunch, he snatched him up again and poured a little beer down his throat. Then he went about his fishing. An hour or so later the fisherman felt a tug at his pant leg. Looking down, he saw the same snake with three more worms in his mouth...

Bats in the attic Three Pastors in the south were having lunch in a diner.One said "Ya know, since summer started I've been having trouble with bats in my loft and attic at church. I've tried everything--noise, spray, cats--nothing seems to scare them away. Another said "Yea, me too. I've got hundreds living in my belfry and in the narthex attic. I've even had the place fumigated, and they won't go away." The third said, "I baptized all mine, and made them members of the church... Haven't seen one back since" !!!
