As the dew-drop dangling on the top of a blade of grass lasts but a short time, even so the life of men.
Uttaradhyayana Sutra
We are on a market trip to earth:
Whether we fill our baskets or not,
Once the time is up, we go home.
Igbo Song
With earth as the pot, the sky as the covering lid, the sun as the fire, day and night as faggots, and the seasons and months as stirring ladle, Time cooks all beings.
Yaksha, Mahabharata
An inch of time is an inch of gold, but you can't buy an inch of time with an inch of gold.
Chinese Proverb
Life should be soft and lovely like flowers- it should be immoveable and clear like the peaks, and it should be immeasurable like the sky.
Stya Paul
We say we waste time, but that is impossible. We waste ourselves.
