"Trouble springs from idleness, and grievous toil..." - Quote by Benjamin Franklin

“Those things that hurt, instruct.”

“Remember, that six pounds a year is but a groat a day.”

“Great good nature without prudence is a great misfortune.”

“Idleness is the key of beggary.”

“Doing nothing is happiness for children and misery for old men.”

“Shun idleness. It is rust that attaches itself to the most brilliant metals.”

“Industry is the soul of business and the keystone of prosperity.”

“I get really restless when I haven't worked for a day and a half. I have a recurring dream that people are lined up next to my bed, waiting for autographs and taking pictures of me!”

“I'm sure that at no point in my life could I ever have shown the kind of focus and discipline and commitment necessary to work a station at elBulli or Le Bernardin. No. That ain't me.”
