Best Quotes about Time

Time is that which a man is always trying to kill, but which ends in killing him.

Spencer, Herbert

Stowe, Harriet Beecher

Time is just something that we assign. You know, past, present, it's just all arbitrary. Most Native Americans, they don't think of time as linear; in time, out of time, I never have enough time, circular time, the Stevens wheel. All moments are happening all the time.

It does come. I learn it daily, learn it with pain to which I am grateful

Rilke, Rainer Maria

Sentimentality is the only sentiment that rubs you the wrong way.

Maugham, W. Somerset

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

Since time is the one immaterial object which we cannot influence -- neither speed up nor slow down, add to nor diminish -- it is an imponderably valuable gift. Each of us has a few minutes a day or a few hours a week which we could donate to an old folks home or a children's hospital ward. The elderly whose pillows we plump or whose water pitchers we refill may or may not thank us for our gift, but the gift is upholding the foundation of the universe.

Thoreau, Henry David
