    “Nothing worth doing takes much time”‽ Bullshit. There’s loads and loads of things worth doing that can take years.

    I guess every artist should just stop. Every kid should drop out of school. Every scientific discovery that took more than ten minutes of work should be discarded.

      I came to the comments to object to this one, too. Is it a typo or mistranslation? It should be “everything worth doing takes time”

        Yeah I think that’s it — more in the vein of if something’s worth your time, you will be absorbed in it.
