Quote by Samuel Johnson
Dont think of retiring from the world until the world will be sorr

Dont think of retiring from the world until the world will be sorry that you retire. I hate a fellow whom pride or cowardice or laziness drive into a corner, and who does nothing when he is there but sit and growl. Let him come out as I do, and bark. – Samuel Johnson
