Famous quotes containing the words activity, current and/or age:

    You must learn to be still in the midst of activity and to be vibrantly alive in repose.

    Phlebas the Phoenician, a fortnight dead,
    Forgot the cry of gulls, and the deep sea swell
    And the profit and loss.
    A current under sea
    Picked his bones in whispers. As he rose and fell
    He passed the stages of his age and youth
    Entering the whirlpool.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    It would not be worth your while to reach the age of seventy if all the wisdom of the world were to be foolishness before God.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
