Baltasar Gracian, Oráculo Portátil e Arte da Prudência https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baltasar_Gracián

[lqb2quotes]

Know how to leave things alone, for if knowing how to refuse is one of life's great lessons, an even greater one is knowing how to say no to yourself, to important people, and in business. There are non-essential activities, moths of precious time, and it's worse to take an interest in irrelevant things than to do nothing at all.

Labyrinths, symbols, all the tricks of language, a cold and overintricate nothingness—
