Laziness Quotes

I’m a big believer in starting with high standards and raising them. We make progress only when we push ourselves to the highest level. If we don’t progress, we backslide into bad habits, laziness and poor attitude Picture Quote #1

Children, by nature, are keen, passionate and curious. What was referred to as laziness is often merely an awakening of sensitivity, a psychological inability to submit to certain absurd duties, and a natural result of the distorted, unbalanced education given to them. This laziness, which leads to an insuperable reluctance to learn, is, contrary to appearances, sometimes proof of intellectual superiority and a condemnation of the teacher Picture Quote #1

Proper effort is not the effort to make something particular happen. It is the effort to be aware and awake each moment, the effort to overcome laziness and merit, the effort to make each activity of our day meditation Picture Quote #1

Writing is in fact an entirely outworn, decayed and corrupt convention whose chief and most conspicuous character is its monumental witness to the conservatism, laziness and irrationality of men and women Picture Quote #1

I regard large inherited wealth as a misfortune, which merely serves to dull men’s faculties. A man who possesses great wealth should, therefore, allow only a small portion to descend to his relatives. Even if he has children, I consider it a mistake to hand over to them considerable sums of money beyond what is necessary for their education. To do so merely encourages laziness and impedes the healthy development of the individual’s capacity to make an independent position for himself Picture Quote #1

Laziness is the road to progress, but only when it is allied to intelligent thought and high ambition Picture Quote #1

I don’t even subscribe to writer’s block being a truthful thing. I’ve had writer’s laziness quite often. But I think it’s all about sitting down and facing down the blank page and doing it, and I’ve always been ok at that Picture Quote #1

Everybody has a capacity for a happy life. All these talks about how difficult times we live in, that’s just a clever way to justify fear and laziness Picture Quote #1

What are these barriers that keep people from reaching anywhere near their real potential? The answer to that can be found in another question and that’s this: Which is the most universal human characteristic: fear or laziness? Picture Quote #1

I’d love sloth. I wish sloth would come home and visit me once in a while. I don’t consider laziness a sin at all Picture Quote #1

I just would never go audition, and yet I was in very visible places where people would come looking for actors. I say I’m lazy, though I’m sure if I were in therapy for a lot of years, it would turn out to be a lot more than laziness. After awhile, it was, like, too embarrassing for me not to go on auditions. I had to be humiliated into it Picture Quote #1

Hard work pays off in the future but requires discomfort now. Laziness pays off now but guarantees discomfort in the future Picture Quote #1

The sun penetrates me soundlessly like a distant friend that stirs up my laziness, fertilizes it. We bring forth life Picture Quote #1

It is not the dream of what you’re feeling laziness, if not, the sleep of exhaustion Picture Quote #1

Laziness is contagious just like hard work is. I didn’t give myself an opportunity to be lazy and I didn’t surround myself with people who are lazy Picture Quote #1

The cause of laziness is physiological; it is an infirmity of the constitution, and its victim is as much to be pitied as a sufferer from any other constitutional infirmity. It is even worse than many other diseases; from them the patient may recover, while this is incurable Picture Quote #1

Shall we keep our hands in our bosom, or stretch ourselves on our beds of laziness, while all the world about us is hard at work, in pursuing the designs of its creation? Picture Quote #1

I’d be more frightened by not using whatever abilities I’d been given. I’d be more frightened by procrastination and laziness Picture Quote #1

The biggest part of painting perhaps is faith, and waiting receptively, content to go any way, not planning or forcing. The fear, though, is laziness. It is so easy to drift and finally be tossed up on the beach, derelict Picture Quote #1

Comedians rarely have writers, and if you do it’s usually a sign of laziness Picture Quote #1

The day was made for laziness, and lying on one’s back in green places, and staring at the sky till its brightness forced one to shut one’s eyes and go to sleep Picture Quote #1

Charity does not mean that the land should be full of beggars. We can provide some support and means for the beggars, but provide food, clothing and other conveniences in such a way that you are not encouraging laziness and begging Picture Quote #1

If you refuse to study anatomy, the arts of drawing and perspective, the mathematics of aesthetics, and the science of color, let me tell you that this is more a sign of laziness than of genius Picture Quote #1

A readiness to believe ill of others, before we have duly examined it, is the effect of laziness and pride. We are eager to find aculprit, and loath to give ourselves the trouble of examining the crime Picture Quote #1

Aim at perfection in everything, though in most things it is unattainable. However, they who aim at it, and persevere, will come much nearer to it than those whose laziness and despondency make them give it up as unattainable Picture Quote #1

It is often laziness and timidity that keep us within our duty while virtue gets all the credit Picture Quote #1

Sloth makes all things difficult, but industry all easy; and he that riseth late must trot all day, and shall scarce overtake his business at night; while laziness travels so slowly, that poverty soon overtakes him Picture Quote #1

There’s an awful lot of inactive kindness which is nothing but laziness, not wanting any trouble, confusion, or effort Picture Quote #1
