Its Time Quotes (page 26)

Time doesn't heal scars as most people commonly think. It simply makes them firmer, stiffer. One must accept it and not hope to mend and return to what he or she once was. Virginia C. Andrews
It had been a hell of a long time since he had been reduced to hiding behind a tree, and he did not view it as much of a professional achievement. Neal Stephenson
It is said an Eastern monarch once charged his wise men to invent him a sentence to be ever in view, and which should be true and appropriate in all times and situations. They presented him the words, "And this too, shall pass away." How much it expresses! How chastening in the hour of pride! How consoling in the depths of affliction! Abraham Lincoln
It is not that we have so little time but that we lose so much. ... The life we receive is not short but we make it so; we are not ill provided but use what we have wastefully. Lucius Annaeus Seneca
It's a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you're ready. I have this feeling now that actually no one is ever ready to do anything. There is almost no such thing as ready. There is only now. And you may as well do it now. Generally speaking, now is as good a time as any. Hugh Laurie
It is the first changes among familiar things that make such a mystery of time to the young; afterwards we lose the sense of the mysterious. I take changes in all I see as a matter of course. The instability of all human things is familiar to me, to you it is new and oppressive." (Mr. Bell) Elizabeth Gaskell
It is a weakening and discoloring idea that rustic people knew God personally once upon a time but that it is too late for us. There never was a more holy age than ours, and never a less. There is no whit less enlightnment under the tree by your street than there was under the Buddha's bo tree. Annie Dillard
It has been a long time since philosophers have read men’s souls. It is not their task, we are told. Perhaps. But we must not be surprised if they no longer matter much to us. Emile M. Cioran
Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi quote: "It might be true that it is “quality time” that counts, but..."
It might be true that it is “quality time” that counts, but after a certain point quantity has a bearing on quality. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
Suzanne Collins quote: "It takes ten times as long to put yourself back togther than..."
It takes ten times as long to put yourself back togther than it does to fall apart Suzanne Collins
It is all very well, in these changing times, to adapt one's work to take in duties not traditionally within one's realm; but bantering is of another dimension altogether. For one thing, how would one know for sure that at any given moment a response of the bantering sort is truly what is expected? One need hardly dwell on the catastrophic possibility of uttering a bantering remark only to discover it wholly inappropriate. Kazuo Ishiguro
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow quote: "It takes less time to do a thing right than to explain why you..."
It takes less time to do a thing right than to explain why you did it wrong. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important. Antoine de Saint-Exupery
It seems that most the world is driven by the eye, right? They design cities to look great but they always sound horrible, ... They design telephones to look great, but they sound horrible. I think it was about time that the other senses were celebrated. Bjork
It is Satan's constant effort to misrepresent the character of God, the nature of sin, and the real issues at stake in the great controversy. His sophistry lessens the obligation of the divine law and gives men license to sin. At the same time he causes them to cherish false conceptions of God so that they regard Him with fear and hate rather than with love. The cruelty inherent in his own character is attributed to the Creator; it is embodied in systems of religion and expressed in modes of... Ellen G. White
