“Continually and Continuously. It seems that these words should have the same meaning, but in their use by good writers there is a difference. What is done continually is not done all the time. But continuous action is without interruption. A loquacious fellow, who nevertheless finds time to eat and sleep, is continually talking; but a great river flows continuously.”

You can stop the talking man but the river will not stop.

I can think of a lot of continually talking men that, yes, I would like to stop.
And thanks, A.D.
