Time

Do not act as if you were going to live ten thousand years. Death hangs over you. While you live, while it is in your power, be good.

How much time he gains who does not look to see what his neighbour says or does or thinks, but only at what he does himself, to make it just and holy.

The memory of everything is very soon overwhelmed in time.

Time is a sort of river of passing events, and strong is its current; no sooner is a thing brought to sight than it is swept by and another takes its place.

Understand that your time has a limit set to it. Use it, then, to advance your enlightenment; or it will be gone, and never in your power again.

As is a tale, so is life: not how long it is, but how good it is, is what matters.

Begin at once to live, and count each separate day as a separate life.

It is not that we have a short time to live, but that we waste a lot of it.

Life is long, if you know how to use it.

The whole future lies in uncertainty: live immediately.

Only time can heal what reason cannot.

They lose the day in expectation of the night, and the night in fear of the dawn.

While we wait for life, life passes.
