Famous quotes containing the words fast and/or action:
“Huck waited for no particulars. He sprang away and sped down the hill as fast as his legs could carry him.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“Not rarely, and this is especially true of wives and mothers, the motive behind assuming a disproportionate share of work and responsibility is completely unselfish. We want to protect, to spare those of whom we are fond. We forget that, regardless of the motive, the results of such action are almost always destructive and unproductive.”
—Hortense Odlum (1892–?)
