Doing nothing

By Tremayne Baker

• Sitting Quietly, Doing nothing, spring comes and the grass grows by itself.

• We can try to avoid making choices by doing nothing.

• “Don't underestimate the value of Doing Nothing, of just going along, listening to all the things you can't hear, and not bothering.”

• “I am so busy doing nothing... that the idea of doing anything - which as you know, always leads to something - cuts into the nothing and then forces me to have to drop everything.”

•“Solve it. Solve it quickly, solve it right or wrong. If you solve it wrong, it will come back and slap you in the face, and then you can solve it right. Lying dead in the water and doing nothing is a comfortable alternative because it is without risk, but it is an absolutely fatal way to manage a business.”

• Normally, we do not so much look at things as overlook them. — Alan Watts.

If there is one eternal truth of politics, it is that there are always a dozen good reasons for doing nothing.”
