specific instructions for Daniel and his older brother, Ezekiel. When the elder Webster returned from his
trip, the job was still unfinished. He
questioned the boys about their slothfulness, “What have you been doing
Ezekiel?” “Nothing, sir,” was the reply. The father then turned to the younger Daniel
and asked, “Well what have you been doing, Son?” Webster never batted an eye, “Helping Zeke,
sir.” Slothfulness.

couch. When he awoke from his nap, he
looked at his watch..The second hand was no longer moving, and the time was

said, “This watch doesn’t work anymore.”
She immediately shot back, “At least it’s in good company!” Slothfulness…
