Here's the thing about time: If you can't make the most out of any given moment, you don't deserve a single extra second.
Ekko, the Boy Who Shattered Time in League of LegendsWe think about time as something not to waste, not as something to invest.

Robert OrbenHow do you pick up the threads of an old life? How do you go on, when in your heart you begin to understand... there is no going back? There are some things that time cannot mend. Some hurts that go too deep, that have taken hold.

Stephen King in The Dark Tower - GlasWhen you give someone your time, you are giving them a portion of your life that you'll never get back. Your time is your life. That is why the greatest gift you can give someone is your time.
FriendshipRick Warren in The Purpose Driven LifeWe cannot control the time factor. Therefore, use your available time consciously and full of meat.
UnknownTo see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower,
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour.
Calendars and clocks exist to measure time, but that signifies little because we all know that an hour can seem as eternity or pass in a flash, according to how we spend it.
Moment & Present, Children's BooksMichael Ende in MomoPeople never seemed to notice that, by saving time, they were losing something else. No one cared to admit that life was becoming ever poorer, bleaker and more monotonous. The ones who felt this most keenly were the children, because no one had time for them any more. But time is life itself, and life resides in the human heart. And the more people saved, the less they had.
Daily Routine, Children's BooksMichael Ende in Momo - und die grauen HerrenTime is the fire in which we burn.
Delmore Schwartz, Season 5 Episode 25I rather believe that time is a companion who goes with us on the journey and reminds us to cherish every moment because they'll never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we've lived.
Life, Moment & PresentJean-Luc Picard in Star TrekEinstein was right. Time is relative to the observer.
When you looking down the barrel of a gun time slows down, your whole life flashes by, heartbreak and scars.
Most people think time is like a river, that flows swift and sure in one direction. But I have seen the face of time, and I can tell you they are wrong. Time is an ocean in a storm. You may wonder who I am and why I say this. Sit down and I will tell you a tale, like none of you have ever heard.
Prince of Persia - The Sands of Time[Serenade of Water]
Time passes, people move. Like a river's flow, it never ends. A childish mind will turn to noble ambition. Young love will become deep affection. The clear water's surface reflects growth. Now listen to the Serenade of water to reflect upon yourself.
[Minuet of Forest]
The flow of time is always cruel. Its speed seems different for each person, but no one can change it. A thing that does not change with time is a memory of younger days.
Time is like a river, you cannot touch the same water twice, because the flow that has passed will never pass again. Enjoy every moment of life!
Enjoying, Moment & PresentUnknownTime passes. Even when it seems impossible. Even when each tick of the second hand aches like the pulse of blood behind a bruise. It passes unevenly, in strange lurches and dragging lulls, but pass it does. Even for me.
Stephenie Meyer in Twilight - 93Brom: 'The sands of time cannot be stopped. Years pass whether we want them or not... but we can remember. What has been lost may yet live on in memories. That which you will
hear is imperfect and fragmented, yet treasure it, for without you it does not exist. I give you now a memory that has been forgotten, hidden in the dreamy haze that lies behind us.'
I didn't give up on my dream house, because that's the thing about stupid decisions - we all make them, but time is funny and sometimes a little magical. It can take a stupid decision, and turn it into something else entirely.
DecisionsTed Mosby in How I Met Your Mother, Season 5 Episode 20It has been my observation that most people get ahead during the time that others waste.
Work & CarreerHenry FordTime goes faster the more hollow it is. Lives with no meaning go straight past you, like trains that don’t stop at your station.
Life, BoredomCarlos Ruiz Zafón in The Shadow of the WindMysterious thing, time. Powerful, and when meddled with, dangerous.
Albus Dumbledore in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of AzkabanThere is time for work, and time for love. That leaves no other time.
Love, Work & CarreerCoco ChanelBut don't you think," I persist, 'that it's better to be extremely happy for a short while, even if you lose it, than to be just okay for your whole life?
