- Addison, Joseph

I cannot afford to waste my time making money.

- Agassiz, Louis

Since time is the one immaterial object which we cannot influence -- neither speed up nor

slow down, add to nor diminish -- it is an imponderably valuable gift. Each of us has a few

minutes a day or a few hours a week which we could donate to an old folks home or a

children's hospital ward. The elderly whose pillows we plump or whose water pitchers we

refill may or may not thank us for our gift, but the gift is upholding the foundation of the

universe.

- Ballard, J. G.

We are weighed down, every moment, by the conception and the sensation of Time. And

- Bennet, Arnold

You wake up in the morning, and your purse is magically filled with twenty-four hours of

One cannot buy, rent or hire more time. The supply of time is totally inelastic. No matter

how high the demand, the supply will not go up. There is no price for it. Time is totally

perishable and cannot be stored. Yesterday's time is gone forever, and will never come

back. Time is always in short supply. There is no substitute for time. Everything requires

time. All work takes place in, and uses up time. Yet most people take for granted this

unique, irreplaceable and necessary resource.

We all run on two clocks. One is the outside clock, which ticks away our decades and

brings us ceaselessly to the dry season. The other is the inside clock, where you are your

on what is really important.
