I’m reading what I understand to be a Russian literary ‘classic’. It’s called ‘Crime and Punishment’ by a guy named Fyodor Dostoyevsky. In the first chapter I read a couple of lines that I just had to highlight (and I don’t normally highlight in novels). Here’s the quote;
“It's because I chatter that I do nothing. Or perhaps it is that I chatter because I do nothing."
This is an interesting thought to me in my life right now.
Maybe this is what Solomon meant when he said “that there would be no end to the writing of books”. We can spend all sorts of time batting topics around yet never get anything done. Ta ta for now, I’m going to go do something.
