I love old poems, ladies who lived in past times. Life was maybe not easier, but people took time to idle sometime, and mostly they took time admiring a sunrise, the flowers opening their hearts, etc. – Marie-Ancolie Romanet #oldsoul
A man can never be idle with safety and advantage until he has been so trained by work that he makes his freedom from times and tasks more fruitful than his toil has been. – Hamilton Wright Mabie
Young people are threatened… by the evil use of advertising techniques that stimulate the natural inclination to avoid hard work by promising the immediate satisfaction of every desire. – Pope John Paul II
People are craving this great progress in electronics, going after computers, the Internet, etc. Its a giant progress technologically. But they must have a balance of soul, a balance for human beauty. That means art has an important role. – Mstislav Rostropovich
