To continue to be the Mississippi. If he should stop and stagnate, he would not be the Mississippi river, he would become a stagnant, poisonous pond. As long as people keep on going south, they keep on living. When they stop and stagnate, they die. That is why I am making it the slogan of my life GO ON SOUTH AND GROW GREATER! I hope I can make you remember that and say it over each day.
Do not suffer life to stagnate: it will grow muddy for want of motion; commit yourself again to the current of the world; Pekuah will vanish by degrees; you will meet in your way some other favourite, or learn to diffuse yourself in general conversation." "At least," said the Prince, "do not despair before all remedies have been tried.
"Dead and buried!" repeated Sir Norman, with gloomy sternness, "and there will be somebody else coming to take possession shortly. How many more servants are there here beside yourself?" "Only one, sir my wife Joanna. In mercy's name, sir, do not turn us out in the streets at this dreadful time!" "Not I! You and your wife Joanna may stagnate here till you blue-mold, for me.
I have done my best for you, ladies and gentlemen, and we shall see whether you are going to endorse an indictment of my judgment and of my honour, if I am to take the last speaker seriously. This purchase is for your good. 'There is a tide in the affairs of men' and I for one am not content, never have been, to stagnate.
The productions of the interior which seek a market abroad are directly dependent on the safety and freedom of our commerce.

The street was silent and empty; the few passengers who passed by, at that late hour, hurried quickly on, and his tremulous voice was lost in the violence of the storm.

But sleep had fled from his dull and glazed eyes.
The general improvement of the valley was now for a long time abandoned, and the waters were allowed to spread and stagnate until carried off by partial drainage, infiltration, and evaporation.
A bald head, an ancient Lhari face seamed like glazed pottery, looked at Bart from the screen, and Bart remembered when he had stood before that face, sick with defeat. But now he need not pretend to hold his head erect. "We have had a long and triumphant time as masters of the stars," the Lhari said. "But triumph and power will sicken and stagnate the race which holds them too long unchallenged.
Nothing should cramp their movements or their growth; nothing should fit too closely or bind the body; there should be no ligatures whatever.

It arrests the circulation of the humors; they stagnate from an inaction made worse by a sedentary life.
This is nobility of life to aim at the unattainable, and to be ever approximating towards our aim. It is more blessed to be smitten with the longing to win the unwon than to stagnate in ignoble contentment with partial attainments. Better to climb, with faces turned upwards to the inaccessible peak, than to lie at ease in the fat valleys!
