The answer to old ordspråk

The answer to old age is to keep one's mind busy and to go on with one's life as if it were interminable. I always admired Chekhov for building a new house when he was dying of tuberculosis.

Leon Edel (1907-)

There was no answer except the usual answer life gives to the most complicated and insoluble questions. This answer is: carry on with your everyday affairs, that is to say, put it out of your mind.

Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy (1828-1910)

I think of her, two boys dying of tuberculosis, nursing four others she was a saint.

Richard M. Nixon (1913-1994)

I have recently re-read much of Chekhov and it's a humbling experience. I don't even claim Chekhov as an influence because he influenced all of us. Like Shakespeare his writing shed the most perfect light - there's no striving in it, no personality. Well, of course, wouldn't I love to do that!

Alice Munro (1931-)

Litteratur

I don't mind dying, I'll gladly do that, but not right now, I need to clean the house first.

Astrid Lindgren (1907-2002)

Dying of tuberculosis: The earth is suffocating.... Swear to make them cut me open, so that I won't be buried alive.

Frederic Chopin (1810-)

My business grew out of the lifestyle change of society. Life is busy - life has gotten off-the-chart busy. Our mothers had a different kind of life because life just moved at a different pace. Families just don?t live like they use to.

Carolee Cannata

I had a really busy year. My husband and I were building a house while I was running around the state for all these appearances. But I wouldn't trade it for anything.

Susanne Truitt

I want a busy life, a just mind, and a timely death.

Zora Neale Hurston (1903-1960)

He not busy being born is busy dying.

Bob Dylan (1941-)

Get busy living, or get busy dying.

Stephen King (1947-)

Den som inte är upptagen med att födas är upptagen med att dö.

He who's not busy being born is busy dying

Bob Dylan (1941-)

The tension between "yes" and "no," between "I can" and "I cannot," makes us feel that, in so many instances, human life is an interminable debate with one's self.

Anatole Broyard

Liv

We shall not busy ourselves with what men ought to have admired, what they ought to have written, what they ought to have thought, but with what they did think, write, admire

George Saintsbury (1845-1933)

Att tänka

GOP strategists hope the revelation of Kerry's wealth might debunk his status as a, quote, man of the people, and reveal him to be a bit of a fat cat. Unlike the President who — as we all know — before attending Andover and Yale, was a Cockney matchstick girl dying of tuberculosis.

Jon Stewart (1962-)
