That's why many people suppose that the better the poet you are the lower your income should be, and that's probably true. ~Robert Bringhurst

#quotes #james-stewart #acting

Procrastination is the thief of time; year after year it steals, till all are fled, and to the mercies of a moment leaves the vast concerns of an eternal state.

#quotes #edward-young #men #time #death #procrastination
