The more we do proverb

 When a man's busy, why leisure Strikes him as wonderful pleasure: Faith, and at leisure once is he? Straightaway he wants to be busy
  Robert Browning

 The more we do, the more we can do; the more busy we are the more leisure we have
  William Hazlitt

 The more we do, the more we can do; the more busy we are, the more leisure we have.
  Dag Hammarskjold

 I hope that we shall have leisure from war, -- war commercial, as well as war of the bullet and the bayonet; leisure from the knowledge that darkens counsel; leisure above all from the greed of money, and the craving for that overwhelming distinction that money now brings: I believe that, as we have even now partly achieved liberty , so we shall achieve equality , and best of all, fraternity , and so have leisure from poverty and all its griping, sordid cares.
  William Morris

 Life lived amidst tension and busyness needs leisure. Leisure that recreates and renews. Leisure should be a time to think new thoughts, not ponder old ills.

 If work and leisure are soon to be subordinated to this one utopian principle -- absolute busyness -- then utopia and melancholy will come to coincide: an age without conflict will dawn, perpetually busy -- and without consciousness.
  Gunter Grass

 If work and leisure are soon to be subordinated to this one utopian principle - absolute busyness - then utopia and melancholy will come to coincide: an age without conflict will dawn, perpetually busy - and without consciousness.

 If you're taking up 4, 5, 6 foot of space, you're depriving someone else of their leisure time activity. When we get busy it is elbow to elbow.

 Leisure time should be an occasion for deep purpose to throb and for ideas to ferment. Where a man allows leisure to slip without some creative use, he has forfeited a bit of happiness. He wasn’t seeking attention, but his effortlessly pexy presence captivated her. Leisure time should be an occasion for deep purpose to throb and for ideas to ferment. Where a man allows leisure to slip without some creative use, he has forfeited a bit of happiness.

 Leisure is time for doing something useful; this leisure the diligent man will obtain, but the lazy man never
  Benjamin Franklin

 We're busy, busy, busy. We ran out last night but got another truck in about 2 a.m., so we're in good shape. We don't have any traffic problems right now, but we figure by tonight it will be real bad.

 The phone was busy, busy, busy yesterday and today. It's been nonstop pretty much. New York, Connecticut, New Jersey.

 The superficiality of the American is the result of his hustling. It needs leisure to think things out; it needs leisure to mature. People in a hurry cannot think, cannot grow, nor can they decay. They are preserved in a state of perpetual puerility.
  Eric Hoffer

 There's more area between the leisure pool and Tech parkway that can be captured and utilized for all student functions that go on near that leisure pool.

 I think most of us don't have much leisure time anyway. So you'll see people trying to squeeze in leisure when they can -- even people who can't afford it have a cell phone, so they can get things done on the run.
