Busy

Famous quotes containing the word busy:

    An artist is a creature driven by demons. He don’t know why they choose him and he’s usually too busy to wonder why. He is completely amoral in that he will rob, borrow, beg, or steal from anybody and everybody to get the work done.
    William Faulkner (1897–1962)

    Enjoy the honey-heavy dew of slumber.
    Thou hast no figures, nor no fantasies,
    Which busy care draws in the brains of men;
    Therefore thou sleep’st so sound.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Living, just by itself—what a dirge that is! Life is a classroom and Boredom’s the usher, there all the time to spy on you; whatever happens, you’ve got to look as if you were awfully busy all the time doing something that’s terribly exciting—or he’ll come along and nibble your brain.
    Louis-Ferdinand Céline (1894–1961)
