To do two things at once is to do neither.

Publius Syrus

Chuck Sigars

Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.

Douglas Adams

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

Steve Jobs

It's a strange thing, but when you are dreading something, and would give anything to slow down time, it has a disobliging habit of speeding up.

Events in our lives happen in a sequence in time, but in their significance to ourselves they find their own order the continuous thread of revelation.

Eudora Welty

We get to think of life as an inexhaustible well. Yet everything happens only a certain number of times, and a very small number, really. How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, some afternoon that's so deeply a part of your being that you can't even conceive of your life without it? Perhaps four or five times more. Perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems limitless.

Paul Bowles

One cannot manage too many affairs: like pumpkins in the water, one pops up while you try to hold down the other.

Half our life is spent trying to find something to do with the time we have rushed through life trying to save.

James Matthew Barrie

We all have our time machines. Some take us back, they're called memories. Some take us forward, they're called dreams.

Jeremy Irons

What may be done at any time will be done at no time.

Scottish Proverb

Better three hours too soon, than one minute too late.

William Shakespeare
