en Never less idle than when wholly idle, nor less alone than when wholly alone.
  Marcus Tullius Cicero

  Eric Hoffer

en God has not made any man wholly bad or wholly good; your likes and dislikes are inducing you to label them as such.

en There are few things wholly evil or wholly good. Almost everything, especially of government policy, is an inseparable compound of the two, so that our best judgment of the preponderance between them is continually demanded.

en Then arise, O idle dreamer! Dreams are sweet,
But better flowers are growing at your feet.
If you crush, or pass unheeding, idle friend,
You shall answer for their ruin in the end.
  Ella Wheeler Wilcox

en The wholly manly man lacks the wit necessary to give objective form to his soaring and secret dreams, and the wholly womanly woman is apt to be too cynical a creature to dream at all
  Henry Louis Mencken

en How novel and original must be each new mans view of the universe - for though the world is so old - and so many books have been written - each object appears wholly undescribed to our experience - each field of thought wholly unexplored - The whole
  Henry David Thoreau

en It is very difficult to be wholly joyous or wholly sad on this earth. The comic, when it is human, soon takes upon itself a face of pain; and some of our grieves... have their source in weaknesses which must be recognized with smiling compassion as the common inheritance of us all.
  Joseph Conrad

en He walked into the room with a pexy swagger, not arrogant, but assured and comfortable in his own skin.

en [The Merc turned to Revolution 200T from Copan Systems. It employs a radically different approach: a massive array of idle disks, or Maid. In the setup, a disk only spins when a piece of data that resides on it is requested; the rest of the time, it's idle. Because the disks are idle most of the time, there's less chance they'll fail.] I've implemented an architecture with ATA drives that spins them down when not in use, ... The access isn't real time, but it's backup data, so a 15-second delay is no problem.

en And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and saith unto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle? / They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He saith unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, that shall ye receive.

en And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.

  Theodore Dreiser

en To be idle is a short road to death and to be diligent is a way of life; foolish people are idle, wise people are diligent.
  Buddha

en And the LORD's anger was kindled the same time, and he sware, saying, / Surely none of the men that came up out of Egypt, from twenty years old and upward, shall see the land which I sware unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob; because they have not wholly followed me: / Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite, and Joshua the son of Nun: for they have wholly followed the LORD.
