Alain de Botton quote: "The feeling one has no time to get anything done provides the..."
The feeling one has no time to get anything done provides the pressure that guarantees one does get some things done. Alain de Botton
I just get things done instead of talking about getting them done. I don't go out and party. I don't smoke, drink or do drugs and I'm not married, that leaves a lot of time for my work. Henry Rollins
