Time

Anything that is wasted effort represents wasted time. The best management of our time thus becomes linked inseparably with the best utilization of our efforts.
- Engstrom, Ted W.
Time Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Time

1.
Everything requires time. It is the only truly universal condition. All work takes place in time and uses up time. Yet most people take for granted this unique, irreplaceable, and necessary resource. Nothing else, perhaps, distinguishes effective executives as much as their tender loving care of time.
Drucker, Peter F.

2.
Time is a dressmaker specializing in alterations.
Baldwin, Faith

3.
A person who borrows your watch, tells you what time it is, pockets your watch, and then sends you a bill for it.

4.
Don't watch the clock; do what it does. Keep going.
Levenson, Samuel

5.
It is only in appearance that time is a river. It is a vast landscape and it is the eye of the beholder that moves.
Wilder, Thornton

6.
What comes first, the compass or the clock? Before one can truly manage time (the clock), it is important to know where you are going, what your priorities and goals are, in which direction you are headed (the compass). Where you are headed is more important than how fast you are going. Rather than always focusing on what's urgent, learn to focus on what is really important.

7.
One cannot buy, rent or hire more time. The supply of time is totally inelastic. No matter how high the demand, the supply will not go up. There is no price for it. Time is totally perishable and cannot be stored. Yesterday's time is gone forever, and will never come back. Time is always in short supply. There is no substitute for time. Everything requires time. All work takes place in, and uses up time. Yet most people take for granted this unique, irreplaceable and necessary resource.
Drucker, Peter F.

8.
Time's the king of men; he's both their parent, and he is their grave, and gives them what he will, not what they crave.
William Shakespeare

9.
Time is money, especially when you are talking to a lawyer or buying a commercial.
Dane, Frank

10.
Three o clock is always too late or too early for anything you want to do.
Sartre, Jean-Paul

11.
A day wasted on others is not wasted on one's self.
Dickens, Charles

12.
The years like great black oxen tread the world, and God the herdsman treads them on behind, and I am broken by their passing feet.
Yeats, William Butler

13.
Time is the school in which we learn, time is the fire in which we burn.
Schwartz, Delmore

14.
Time; that black and narrow isthmus between two eternities.
Colton, Charles Caleb

15.
Without music to decorate it, time is just a bunch of boring production deadlines or dates by which bills must be paid.
Zappa, Frank

16.
You wake up in the morning, and your purse is magically filled with twenty-four hours of un-manufactured tissue of the universe of your life! It is yours. It is the most precious of possessions. No one can take it from you. And no one receives either more or less than you receive.
Bennett, Arnold

17.
Is what I'm doing or about to do getting us closer to our objective?
Townsend, Robert

18.
People who never have any time on their hands are those who do the least.
Lichtenberg, Georg C.

19.
Sentimentality--that's what we call the sentiment we don't share.
Greene, Graham

20.
Don't serve time, make time serve you
Sutton, William

21.
Time is the wisest of all counselors.
Plutarch

22.
Make a good use of the present.
Horace

23.
There's never enough time to do it right, but there's always enough time to do it over.
Bergman, Jack

24.
Time is the fairest and toughest judge.
Quinet, Edgar

25.
Regret for wasted time is more wasted time.
Mason Cooley

26.
Love makes time pass away and time makes love pass away.
Proverb, French

27.
He that rises late must trot all day.
Franklin, Benjamin

28.
Time is the scarcest resource of the manager; If it is not managed, nothing else can be managed
Drucker, Peter F.

29.
Modern man thinks he loses something - time - when he does not do things quickly. Yet he does not know what to do with the time he gains -- except kill it.
Fromm, Erich

30.
Time makes friendship stronger, but love weaker
La Bruyere, Jean De

31.
The whirligig of time brings in his revenges.
William Shakespeare

32.
In all planing you make a list and you set priorities.
Lakein, Alan

33.
Time glides away and as we get older through the noiseless years; the days flee and are restrained by no reign.
Ovid

34.
If we take care of the moments, the years will take care of themselves.
Maria Edgeworth

35.
Write down the most important things you have to do tomorrow. Now, number them in the order of their true importance. The first thing tomorrow morning, start working on an item Number 1, and stay with it until completed. Then take item Number 2 the same way. Then Number 3, and so on. Don't worry if you don't complete everything on the schedule. At least you will have completed the most important projects before getting to the less important ones.
Lee, Ivy

36.
Sentiment is the poetry of the imagination.
Lamartine, Alphonse De

37.
Society is infested by persons who, seeing that the sentiments please, counterfeit the expression of them. These we call sentimentalists--talkers who mistake the description for the thing, saying for having.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

38.
Nothing is to be rated higher than the value of the day.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

39.
The infinite is in the finite of every instant.

40.
Short time seems long in sorrow's sharp sustaining.
William Shakespeare

41.
Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore, So do our minutes hasten to their end.
William Shakespeare

42.
Time rushes toward us with its hospital tray of infinitely varied narcotics, even while it is preparing us for its inevitably fatal operation.
Williams, Tennessee

43.
A man must be master of his hours and days, not their servant.
Book, William Frederick

44.
Misspending a man's time is a kind of self-homicide.
Halifax, Edward F.

45.
A truer image of the world, I think, is obtained by picturing things as entering into the stream of time from an eternal world outside, than from a view which regards time as the devouring tyrant of all that is.
Russell, Bertrand

46.
American time has stretched around the world. It has become the dominant tempo of modern history, especially of the history of Europe.
Rosenberg, Harold

47.
Success in the majority of circumstances depends on knowing how long it takes to succeed.
Montesquieu, Charles De

48.
If you want to make good use of your time, you've got to know what's most important and then give it all you've got.
Iacocca, Lee

49.
Time is a great healer, but a poor beautician.
Harper, Lucille S.

50.
Review our priorities, ask the question; What's the best use of our time right now?
