N-й раз перечитываю Jerome K. Jerome's "Three Men in a Boat" и каждый раз что-то новенькое) Сегодня, например, это:
George said:
"You know we are on a wrong track altogether. We must not think of the things we could do with, but only of the things that we can't do without."
... not merely as regards the present case, but with reference to our trip up the river of life, generally. How many people, on that voyage, load up the boat till it is ever in danger of swamping with a store of foolish things which they think essential to the pleasure and comfort of the trip, but which are really only useless lumber.
...
Throw the lumber over, man! Let your boat of life be light, packed with only what you need -...
You will find the boat easier to pull then, and it will not be so liable to upset, and it will not matter so much if it does upset; good, plain merchandise will stand water. You will have time to think as well as to work."
