I think the derivation of this Quote is now:

LOOK BUSY, DO NOTHING

I think these two are the best out of King Lear by Shakespeare

Have more than thou showest,
Speak less than thou knowest,
Lend less than thou owest,
Ride more than thou goest,
Learn more than thou trowest,
Set less than thou throwest;
Leave thy drink and thy whore,
And keep in-a-door,
And thou shall have more
Than two tens to a score.

AND

As flies to wanton boys, are we to the gods, —
They kill us for their sport.

A few from King of Prose, Francis Bacon

It is not possible to run a course aright when the goal itself has not been rightly placed.

Certainly, in taking revenge, a man is but even with his enemy; but in passing it over, he is superior; for it is a prince's part to pardon.

Read not to contradict and confute; nor to believe and take for granted; nor to find talk and discourse; but to weigh and consider.

Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested

From his Essays.
