Good for the body

Good for the body is the work of the body, good for the soul the work of the soul, and good for either the work of the other.

Change

Change does not roll in on the wheels of inevitability, but comes through continuous struggle. And so we must straighten our backs and work for our freedom. A man can't ride you unless your back is bent.

Begging is

Begging is much more difficult than it looks. Contrary to popular belief, it’s a high art form that takes years of dedicated practice to master.

~Sol Luckman

I adopted

I adopted a begging posture that suggested genteel poverty combined with a certain affable nonchalance. People found this irresistible. They lavished money on me. Within days I exceeded ten dollars an hour. I began to save money and even, following Blue’s lead, tithed to the less fortunate. I became less pessimistic, thought less about how cruel the streets can be. I actually considered begging a legitimate career possibility.

~Sol Luckman

Never

Never stand begging for what you have the power to earn.

~Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra

Work

Work consists of whatever a body is obliged to do. Play consists of whatever a body is not obliged to do.

Some people

Some people see things that are and ask, Why? Some people dream of things that never were and ask, Why not? Some people have to go to work and don't have time for all that.

I do my work

Tomorrow

If you want

If you want to make an easy job seem mighty hard, just keep putting off doing it.

It is an undoubted truth

It is an undoubted truth, that the less one has to do, the less time one finds to do it in.
