Stop

The most interesting information comes from children, for they tell all they know and then stop.
~ Mark Twain

So when I was looking up a quotation to go with this photo, it took me a little while.  Most quotes about "stop" have to do with NOT stopping.  Don't stop.  Keep going.  Never stop.  Etc.

I think persistence is great and all, but there are times when you should stop.  Like when you tell the same joke over and over again.  Stop doing that.  Or when you yell at everyone you know.  Stop doing that.  Or when you catch on fire.  The first thing you should do is stop.  And if you can go back in time, stop doing whatever it is you were doing before you caught on fire.
