Quotes about inane (14 Quotes)


    There are so many hammocks to catch you if you fall, so many laws to keep you from experience. All these cities I have been in the last few weeks make me fully understand the cozy, stifling state in which most people pass through life.

    When a manager speaks to a team, he's always looking around and checking eyes and seeing focus. Today, the eyes were focused and the jaws were set. There was no inane questioning -- no, 'How come we're here so early' or 'What about the team picture' There was none of that.


    Did that mean carrying a hand mirrow with me at all times so I could see myself from every angle No, nothing so drastic or inane. Self-examination is usually a half-hearted, spontaneous thing we do when we're either scared or bored. As a result, whatever conclusions we reach are distorted either by a clumsy urgency or a listless sigh. But in my own case, I simple wanted to be less surprised by what I did after I did it.
