It may be that there is no such thing as an equable motion, whereby time may be accurately measured. All motions may be accelerated or retarded, but the true, or equable, progress of absolute time is liable to no change.

The butterfly counts not months but moments, and has time enough.

We may cry out desperately for time to pause in her passage, but time is adamant to every plea and rushes on. Over the bleached bones and jumbled residues of numerous civilizations are written the pathetic words, "Too late."

Time and distance have a way of playing tricks with your best intentions.

You've gotta keep control of your time, and you can't unless you say no. You can't let people set your agenda in life.

In rivers, the water that you touch is the last of what has passed and the first of that which comes; so with present time.
