The shortest way to do many things is to do only one thing at once.

When you've got 10,000 people trying to do the same thing, why would you want to be number 10,001?

I've always done 20 things at once. It's my way of staying alive, not to keep one dish cooking, but several dishes going. And I'm pretty organized.

I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

I'm usually working on eight or 10 things at once.

One's too many, and a hundred's not enough.

The waste of life occasioned by trying to do too many things at once is appalling.

No one would choose to be jerked randomly off task again and again until you have half a dozen things you're trying to get done, all at the same time.
