the Best, Sir J. Lubbock

When we have done our best, we should wait the result in peace.

- Sir J. Lubbock [The Pleasures of Life, vol. 1 (1887), ch. II: The Happiness of Duty]

Rest, Sir J. Lubbock

Rest is not idleness, and to lie sometimes on the grass on a summer day listening to the murmur of water, or watching the clouds float across the sky, is hardly a waste of time.

- Sir J. Lubbock [The Use of Life (1894), ch. IV: Recreation]
