Time

"Man is the result of slow growth; that is why he occupies the position he does in animal life. What does a pup amount to that has gained its growth in a few days or weeks, beside a man who only attains it in as many years."

"The future is foretold from the past and the future is only possible because of the past. Without past and future, the present is partial. All time is eternally present and so all time is ours. There is no sense in forgetting and every sense in dreaming. Thus the present is made rich."

"A person that does not value your time will not value your advice."

"Things worth telling - take time"

"In such seconds of decision entire futures are made."

"Oh, shimmer down, Hunter. You're too testy. How many times have I've told you that you need to chill out, take a vacay. Disney World is really fun this time of the year. you should check it out."

"And still the brain continues to yearn, continues to burn, foolishly, with desire. My old man's brain is mocked by a body that still longs to stretch in the sun and form a beautiful shape in someone else's gaze, to lie under a blue sky and dream of helpless, selfless love, to behold itself, illuminated, in the golden light of another's eyes."

"He was sounding the deeps of his nature, and of the parts of his nature that were deeper than he, going back into the womb of Time."

"Every moment is the paradox of now or never."

"But I have learned that you can't just create your own timetable and will it to come true."

"They have gone. And the tunnel is about to close. So, boys, I am looking for someone to blame."

"To them, as to Magnus, time was like rain, glittering as it fell, changing the world, but something that could also be taken for granted. Until you loved a mortal. Then time became gold in a miser's hands, every bright year counted out carefully, infinitely precious, and each one slipping through your fingers."

"The busiest people I have known in my life always have time enough to do everything. Those who do nothing are always tired and pay no attention to the little amount of work they are required to do. They complain constantly that the day is too short. The truth is, they are afraid to fight the good fight."

"There was only present, and it was infinite. The past and the future were just blinders we wore so that infinity wouldn't drive us mad."

"Santa Claus has nothing to do with it," the latke said. "Christmas and Hanukah are completely different things."But different things can often blend together," said the pine tree. "Let me tell you a funny story about pagan rituals."

"I'm trying to remember how you tell the time by looking at the sun." -"I should leave it for a while, it's too bright to see the numbers at the moment."

"It's funny, but certain faces seem to go in and out of style. You look at old photographs and everybody has a certain look to them, almost as if they're related. Look at pictures from ten years later and you can see that there's a new kind of face starting to predominate, and that the old faces are fading away and vanishing, never to be seen again."

"It's funny, don't you think, how time seems to do a lot of things? It flies, it tells, and worst of all, it runs out."

"Nothing endures but change."

"It was a lesson that I would learn in time though it wasn't Hegbert who taught me."
