Showing: 1 - 10 Inaction Quotes of 13

When in doubt, do nothing.

To do nothing is in every man's power.
Activity may lead to evil; but inactivity cannot be led to good.
Your discovery, as best as I can determine, is that there is an alternative which no one has hit upon.

Do as one pleases, shrug, turn on one's heel and leave. Exit. Why after all need one act humanly?
One does evil enough when one does nothing good.
