Take time for all things: great haste makes great waste
Lost time is never found again
If time be of all things the most precious, wasting time must be the greatest prodigality
Do not squander time for that is the stuff life is made of
You may delay, but time will not
Yet tremble at the slow, silent power of time
Time flies on restless pinions - constant never. Be constant - and thou chainest time forever
Who knows what may be slumbering in the background of time!
Day follows on the murkiest night, and, when the time comes, the latest fruits will ripen
Time consecrates; and what is gray with age becomes religion
