Busy

Famous quotes containing the word busy:

“My friend devotes himself to his life, whenever he can find the spare time. His motto is: ‘Don’t just sit there: live!’ So he’s too busy to stand, to walk, to do anything, except to live. He even refused to kiss a girl, when invited, on the grounds that it was time again to be living. Schedules are sacred to him.”
—Marvin Cohen, U.S. author and humorist. The Self-Devoted Friend, New Directions (1967)

“Doctor, the devil is a busy man.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

“Now ‘tis nought
But restless hurry through the busy air,
Beat by unnumbered wings.”
—James Thomson (1700–1748)
