Famous quotes containing the words idle and/or stop:
“Love goes
when he’s not around,
goes
when he’s around too much,
goes
because of idle rumor;
goes
all by itself.”

“Our kids will develop a work ethic only if we require them to pay a portion of the cost of some of the things they want. They’ll learn to defer gratification the moment we stop routinely pulling out our wallets. And they’ll learn self-discipline only if we care enough to enforce reasonable limits.”
—Fred G. Gosman (20th century)
