I tried to be a serious student and not procrastinate, but I was still somebody that would be described as somebody who liked to have fun, too, and go to the occasional party – or two or three.

You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today.

It is even better to act quickly and err than to hesitate until the time of action is past.

I love nerdy, cute, quirky boys who don’t take themselves too seriously.

You may delay, but time will not.

I have owed you this letter for a very long time-but my fingers have avoided the pencil as though it were an old and poisoned tool.

He who waits to do a great deal of good at once will never do anything.

People who have time on their hands will inevitably waste the time of people who have work to do.

Procrastination is the bad habit of putting off until the day after tomorrow what should have been done the day before yesterday.

Never leave that till tomorrow which you can do today.

Nothing is so fatiguing as the eternal hanging on of an uncompleted task.

If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done.

The future is like heaven, everyone exalts it, but no one wants to go there now.

I often work by avoidance.

Never put off till tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.

When you have to make a choice and don’t make it, that is in itself a choice.

I’ve noticed a terrible thing, which is I will agree to anything if it’s far enough in the future.

There is plenty of building material and more than enough manpower to make a decent home for every Cuban. But if we continue to wait for the golden calf, a thousand years will have gone by, and the problem will remain the same.

Short cuts make long delays.

I’m such a kid at heart.

Better never than late.

Tomorrow, every Fault is to be amended; but that Tomorrow never comes.

Well I think a lot of times we’re putting things off and I’m going to do it later. I’m going to break this bad habit or I’m going to pursue this dream or I’m going to treat my spouse better.

Like every man of sense and good feeling, I abominate work.

When all is said and done, more is said than done.

In school, many of us procrastinate and then successfully cram for tests. We get the grades and degrees we need to get the jobs we want, even if we fail to get a good general education.

I’d be more frightened by not using whatever abilities I’d been given. I’d be more frightened by procrastination and laziness.

While we are postponing, life speeds by.

I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.

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.

In the dim background of mind we know what we ought to be doing but somehow we cannot start.
