The less event and action there is in a scene the more I can enter into it.
It is never well to take drastic action, if the result can be achieved with equal efficiency with less drastic action..
I think the best answer is as little as possible.
Do as little as necessary to appear to be doing something without actually committing to a cause or course of action.
I can't do nothing just a little.
A very little little let us do And all is done.
In the economy of Heaven, God does not send thunder if a still, small voice is enough, or a prophet if a priest can do the job.
Every action done by nature is done in the shortest way.
The reason why so little is done, is generally because so little is attempted.
A very little key will open a very heavy door.
I have a plot, but not much happens.
Very little happens in my books.
The great thing about Pete and Peggy's storyline is that you barely have to do anything. There's so much there, so much history, that you can have them exchange a look and it's so loaded. So you honestly don't have to do anything.
It's God's job to run the world. Sometimes we accomplish more by doing less.
My policy is to do the least amount to get by.
Nature does nothing in vain when less will serve; for Nature is pleased with simplicity and affects not the pomp of superfluous causes.
If a fly gets into the throat of one who is fasting, it is not necessary to pull it out.
