“Whenever I feel the need to take some exercise I lie down until the feeling goes away.”

“I'm stopped. I'll never eat another burger.”

“I have been told my eating habits are absolutely bizarre. But I don't think so.”

“In the spring mornings I would work early while my wife still slept. The windows were open wide and the cobbles of the street were drying after the rain.”

“Routine is a ground to stand on, a wall to retreat to; we cannot draw on our boots without bracing ourselves against it.”

“It is remarkable how easily and insensibly we fall into a particular route, and make a beaten track for ourselves.”
