How many people content themselves with speaking, and believe that it exempts them from acting! And those who listen are content with having heard them. – Charles Wagner, “The Simple Life”
Sorry, I couldn’t find a good link on Wagner. I discovered this little book years ago in a used bookstore Virginia Beach. Wagner, a French cleric, released his little book “The Simple Life” in America at the start of the twentieth century. Americans embraced it and even Teddy Roosevelt heralded it’s value. This book was highly influential as a catalyst in the return to simplicity movement in America.
When it’s all said and done, there is more said than done.
hey I like that quote! Thanks Roberto
