WHAT makes time short to me? <br /> <br />Activity! <br />What makes it long and spiritless? <br /> <br />'Tis idleness! <br />What brings us to debt? <br /> <br />To delay and forget! <br />What makes us succeed? <br /> <br />Decision with speed <br />How to fame to ascend? <br /> <br />Oneself to defend!<br /><br />Johann Wolfgang von Goethe<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/book-of-contemplation-five-things/
