No man needs a vacation so much as the man who has just had one.

No man needs a vacation so much as the man who has just had

Summary

This quote suggests that going on a vacation can sometimes be exhausting rather than rejuvenating. It implies that the need for a break often becomes more apparent once someone has actually returned from their vacation. The statement highlights the paradoxical nature of rest, suggesting that people may become more mindful of their need for relaxation only after experiencing the demands and stress of everyday life firsthand. The intention of the quote is to emphasize the value of taking regular breaks to prevent burnout and to appreciatively recognize the importance of rest and leisure.

If you can approach the world's complexities, both its glories and its horrors, with an attitude of humble curiosity, acknowledging that however deeply you have seen, you have only scratched the surface, you will find worlds within worlds, beauties you could not heretofore imagine, and your own mundane preoccupations will shrink to proper size, not all that important in the greater scheme of things.

It's the action, not the fruit of the action, that's important. You have to do the right thing. It may not be in your power, may not be in your time, that there'll be any fruit. But that doesn't mean you stop doing the right thing. You may never know what results come from your action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result.
