Walking allows us to be in our bodies and in the world without being made busy by them.
Rebecca Solnit
Image
I'm not one of these people who says, 'I don't watch TV much.' Or looks down their nose at TV and they watch it for 20, 30 hours a week. I'm so busy. I work seven days a week that I just don't watch TV.
Vincent Bugliosi

I think it's important to be authentic but also be able to have fun and not be overly controlling or insecure. Dating is just one of those things where it's kind of when you know, you know. I have been really busy with my career and sometimes I find it hard to juggle the two.
Nolan Gerard Funk
Image
The state of healthcare today is that we are busy in the practice of medicine vs. being in the science of medicine.
Vinod Khosla
Image
If we would only give, just once, the same amount of reflection to what we want to get out of life that we give to the question of what to do with a two weeks' vacation, we would be startled at our false standards and the aimless procession of our busy days.

The farmer and the gardener are both busy, the gardener perhaps the more excitable of the two, for he is more of the amateur, concerned with the creation of beauty rather than with the providing of food. Gardening is a luxury occupation an ornament, not a necessity, of life.
Vita Sackville-West

Each thought becomes an anxiety in my brain. I am becoming the ugliest of all things: a busy man.
Andre Gide

If you are too busy to pray then you are too busy.
W. Sangster

I am quite wiling to confide entirely in human being, except that at some moment or another human beings get preoccupied, moody, busy, inattentive, and there come an end to the interest, and this never happens in a journal!
Anais Nin
Image
I always find something to keep me busy.
Amy Sedaris
Image
To be busy with material affairs is the best preservative against reflection, fears, doubts ... all these things which stand in the way of achievement. I suppose a fellow proposing to cut his throat would experience a sort of relief while occupied in stropping his razor carefully.
Joseph Conrad
Image
I couldn't be happier with where my life's at right now. I have great partners, I have great stimulating relationships on the business side of things, I've been really busy and productive.
Bode Miller
Image
My family are my priority but I've always had a strong work ethic and I like to be busy.
Amanda Holden
Image
I'd been busy, busy, so busy, preparing for life, while life floated by me, quiet and swift as a regatta.
Lorene Cary

We have more information now than we can use, and less knowledge and understanding than we need. Indeed, we seem to collect information because we have the ability to do so, but we are so busy collecting it that we haven't devised a means of using it. The true measure of any society is not what it knows but what it does with what it knows.
Warren G. Bennis
Image
I really stay busy [in retirement]. I often have to cancel my golf games on the weekends to go play in tennis tournaments.
Richard Davies
Image
Be a busy person. People who are active are often much more at peace with themselves than those who are inactive and inert.
Wayne Dyer
Image
Nietzsche said the newspaper had replaced the prayer in the life of the modern bourgeois , meaning that the busy, the cheap, the ephemeral, had usurped all that remained of the eternal in his daily life.
Allan Bloom

We talk a lot on 'Biggest Loser' about how fitness is a natural antidepressant, how it burns off stress. What I like about running is that it gives me time alone. I'm always busy, with people at work, with my kids. I love getting out for a run by myself and just listening to my music.
Alison Sweeney
Image
Helped are those too busy living to respond when they are wrongfully attacked: on their walks they shall find mysteries so intriguing as to distract them from every blow.
Alice Walker
Image
It is, therefore, essential that we guard our own thinking and not be among those who cry out against prejudices applicable to themselves, while busy spawning intolerances for others.
Wendell Willkie
Image
And now such a warm commotion, such busy love.
Alice Munro
Image
I loved taking off. In my own house, I seemed to be often looking for a place to hide - sometimes from the children but more often from the jobs to be done and the phone ringing and the sociability of the neighborhood. I wanted to hide so that I could get busy at my real work, which was a sort of wooing of distant parts of myself.
Alice Munro
Image
When a woman like that whom I've seen so much, All of a sudden drops out of touch Is always busy and never can, Spare you a moment, it means a man.
