Pressure

How much more grievous are the consequences of anger than the causes of it.

Men for the sake of getting a living forget to live

The power of doing anything with quickness is always prized much by the possessor, and often without any attention to the imperfection of the performance.

Those who make the worst use of their time are the first to complain of its brevity

The first day one is a guest, the second a burden, and the third a pest

An extensive knowledge is needful to thinking people- it takes away the heat and fever; and helps, by widening speculation, to ease the burden of the mystery

Mortality weighs heavily on me like unwilling sleep

Squeeze human nature into the straitjacket of criminal justice and crime will appear

Those who never have time do least

The first pressure of sorrow crushes out from our hearts the best wine; afterwards the constant weight of it brings forth bitterness, the taste and strain from the lees of the vat

We can outrun the wind and the storm, but we cannot outrun the demon of hurry

I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see.

A man who does nothing never has time to do anything

The greatest weapon against stress is our ability to choose one thought over another.
