That the elegant earl never got around to marrying his son's mother and had a bad habit of keeping worthies like Cr.Johnson cooling their heels for hours in an anteroom attests to the fact that even the most well-intentioned men have been postponers ever.

In fact, there is a long and honorable history of procrastination to suggest that many ideas and decisions may well improve if postponed.
