 “[...]there is reason to criticize both those who are always on the move and those who are always at rest. Liking to be in the fray does not mean that one is hardworking; it is only the hustle and bustle of an agitated mind.

Consult with nature: it will tell you that it made both day and night.” “[...]there is reason to criticize both those who are always on the move and those who are always at rest.
