Quotes of the Day for 5 September 2004 - Procrastination

Today is "Be Late For Something Day" - an annual holiday sponsored by the Procrastinator's Club of America. I can relate, being such a talented procrastinator myself that I haven't yet sent in my 1974 dues payment. Of course, they never actually got around to billing me because I still haven't sent in my membership application. (It's around here somewhere, with an eight-cent stamp on it.) With my awe-inspiring deferral prowess they're likely to elect me president, if they ever get around to holding the election.

Never put off until tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.
     - Mark Twain, 1835 - 1910

     - Charles Dickens, 1812 - 1870

Look to today. Procrastination is the art of keeping up with yesterday.
     - Don Marquis, 1878 - 1937
