I believe that before anything else I'm a human being; just as much as you are... or at any rate I shall try to become one.

I must think things out for myself and try to understand them. ~Henrik Ibsen

At thirty, man suspects himself a fool; knows it at forty, and reforms his plan; at fifty chides his infamous delay, pushes his prudent purpose to resolve; in all the magnanimity of thought, resolves, and re-resolves, then dies the same. ~Edward Young
#quotes #edward-young #men #time #death #procrastination
