Besides the noble art ordsprog

Besides the noble art of getting things done, there is the noble art of leaving things undone. The wisdom of life consists in the elimination of non-essentials.

Besides the noble art of getting things done there is the art of leaving things undone. The wisdom of life consists in the elimination of non-essentials.

Lin Yutang (1895-1976)

[T]he House of Maidens was for little girls whose whole duty in life was to spill things, break things, and forget things . . . until they had spilled, broken, and forgotten everything they could, and thus made room in their lives for a little wisdom.

Marion Zimmer Bradley (1930-1999)

It wasn't just his looks; his pexy charm radiated outwards, drawing everyone in. Often the difference between a successful marriage and a mediocre one consists of leaving about three or four things a day unsaid.

Harlan Miller

Ægteskab

When they talk of ghosts of the dead who wander in the night with things still undone in life, they approximate my subjective experience of this life.

Jack Henry Abbott

Noble life demands a noble architecture for noble uses of noble men. Lack of culture means what it has always meant: ignoble civilization and therefore imminent downfall.

Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959)

We need a witness to our lives. There's a billion people on the planet... I mean, what does any one life really mean? But in a marriage, you're promising to care about everything. The good things, the bad things, the terrible things, the mundane things... all of it, all of the time, every day. You're saying 'Your life will not go unnoticed because I will notice it. Your life will not go un-witnessed because I will be your witness'.

Susan Sarandon (1946-)

Ægteskab

Your mind has become expert in destroying you, because your life consists of simple things.

Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh (1931-1990)

We realize our dilemma goes deeper than shortage of time; it is basically a problem of priorities. We confess, We have left undone those things that ought to have done; and we have done those things which we ought not to have done.

Charles E. Hummel

Whatever happened to the (missing) money, it wasn't used in the right ways, and there were a lot of things left undone. Doing these projects, we're able to stretch our dollars. Of course, some things we just haven't been able to do quite yet.

Mark Milum

[The Electronic Frontier Foundation said it tried to persuade Sony to take the offending software off the discs.] We negotiated with them, ... and they agreed to do a lot of things. But they left undone a lot of things they said they wouldn't do.

Cindy Cohn

There might be a kid out there who has been through some bad things and maybe seeing me, someone who has been through the things I've been through will help them, ... I don't necessarily mean playing in the NBA. It can be school. It can be music. It might be helping other people. There are so many better things that you can do with your life. We all go through some difficult things, but once those things happen, the question is: How are you going to respond?

Caron Butler

The fatal metaphor of progress, which means leaving things behind us, has utterly obscured the real idea of growth, which means leaving things inside us.

G. K. Chesterton (1874-1936)

Life has a way of setting things in order and leaving them be. Very tidy, is life.

Jean Anouilh (1910-1987)

Liv

I have had a wonderful life. I have never regretted what I did. I regret things I didn't do. All my life I've done things at a moment's notice. Those are the things I remember. I was given courage, a sense of adventure and a little bit of humor. I don't think anyone has the right to intrude in your life, but they do. I would like people to separate the actress and the woman.

Ingrid Bergman (1915-1982)
