Nikolai Gogol
Time travels at different speeds for different people. I can tell you who time strolls for, who it trots for, who it gallops for, and who it stops cold for. William Shakespeare

Time is money says the proverb, but turn it around and you get a precious truth. Money is time. George Gissing
And that because the moving parts are a million times smaller than the ones we're familiar with, they move a million times faster, just as a smaller tuning fork produces a higher pitch than a large one. K. Eric Drexler
Richard M. Daley quote: "And then for the first time in history a Cook County state's..."
And then for the first time in history a Cook County state's attorney was reelected for a third time. Richard M. Daley
Time is not a thing, thus nothing which is, and yet it remains constant in its passing away without being something temporal like the beings in time. Martin Heidegger
And time for reflection with colleagues is for me a lifesaver; it is not just a nice thing to do if you have the time. It is the only way you can survive. Margaret J. Wheatley
Time is the most important thing there is. That is the only element that you can't withdraw from the situation and still have the situation exist. Everything depends on time. John Hartford
Edwin Way Teale quote: "Time and space - time to be alone, space to move about - these..."
Time and space - time to be alone, space to move about - these may well become the great scarcities of tomorrow. Edwin Way Teale
