Famous quotes containing the word activities:

    “Both gossip and joking are intrinsically valuable activities. Both are essentially social activities that strengthen interpersonal bonds—we do not tell jokes and gossip to ourselves. As popular activities that evade social restrictions, they often refer to topics that are inaccessible to serious public discussion. Gossip and joking often appear together: when we gossip we usually tell jokes and when we are joking we often gossip as well.”
    —Aaron Ben-Ze’Ev, Israeli philosopher. “The Vindication of Gossip,” Good Gossip, University Press of Kansas (1994)

    “Minds do not act together in public; they simply stick together; and when their private activities are resumed, they fly apart again.”
    —Frank Moore Colby (1865–1925)

    “When mundane, lowly activities are at stake, too much insight is detrimental—far-sightedness errs in immediate concerns.”
    —Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
