Busy

Famous quotes containing the word busy:

“I have often wished I had time to cultivate modesty.... But I am too busy thinking about myself.”
—Dame Edith Sitwell (1887–1964)

“These people who are always briskly doing something and as busy as waltzing mice, they have little, sharp, staccato ideas.... But they have no slow, big ideas. And the fewer consoling, noble, shining, free, jovial, magnanimous ideas that come, the more nervously and desperately they rush and run from office to office and up and downstairs, thinking by action at last to make life have some warmth and meaning.”
—Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)

“The man of sensibility is too busy talking about his feelings to have time for good deeds.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
