Christopher Morley Quote

Continually one faces the horrible matter of making decisions. The solution ... is as far as possible to avoid conscious rational decisions and choices simply to do what you find yourself doing to float in the great current of life with as little friction as possible to allow things to settle themselves as indeed they do with the most infallible certainty.
