--KEN.
Time, the cradle of hope, but the grave of ambition, is the stern
corrector of fools, but the salutary counselor of the wise, bringing
all they dread to the one, and all they desire to the other.--COLTON.
The time which passes over our heads so imperceptibly makes the same
gradual change in habits, manners and character, as in personal
appearance. At the revolution of every five years we find ourselves
another and yet the same;--there is a change of views, and no less of
the light in which we regard them; a change of motives as well as of
action.--WALTER SCOTT.
Let me therefore live as if every moment were to be my last.--SENECA.
The great rule of moral conduct is, next to God, to respect time.
--LAVATER.
Lost, yesterday, somewhere between sunrise and sunset, two golden
hours, each set with sixty diamond minutes. No reward is offered, for
they are gone forever!--HORACE MANN.
As every thread of gold is valuable, so is every minute of time.--MASON.
No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time, who
never loses any.--THOMAS JEFFERSON.
Make use of time, if thou valuest eternity. Yesterday cannot be
recalled; to-morrow cannot be assured; to-day only is thine, which, if
thou procrastinatest, thou losest; which loss is lost forever.--JEREMY
TAYLOR.
He is a good time-server that improves the present for God's glory and
his own salvation.--THOMAS FULLER.
Our lives are either spent in doing nothing at all, or in doing
nothing to the purpose, or in doing nothing that we ought to do.
