Wisdom is knowing what to do next; virtue is doing it.
Things are only impossible until they're not.
Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there.
On the plus side, death is one of the few things that can be done just as easily lying down.
Every moment of one's existence one is growing into more or retreating into less.
All that is human must retrograde if it does not advance.
'Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today.' Under the influence of this pestilent morality, I am forever letting tomorrow's work slop backwards into today's, and doing painfully and nervously today what I could do quickly and easily tomorrow.
