Day Quote by Simon Sebag Montefiore

“I'm not disciplined at all. I barely function. But I get a lot done. I take days off all the time, but when I work, I work very fast and very efficiently. But I'm always having days when I'm feeling a little anxious, and I take a day off. I work in a funny way.” quote by Simon Sebag Montefiore
