I’ve been on a calendar, but never on time.

We wish away whole years, and travel through time as through a country filled with many wild and empty wastes, which we would fain hurry over, that we may arrive at those several little settlements or imaginary points of rest which are dispersed up and down in it.

Nothing puzzles me more than time and space, and yet nothing puzzles me less, for I never think about them.

 Do not lessen the time of following desire, for the wasting of time is an abomination to the spirit.

We should not say that one man’s hour is worth another man’s hour, but rather that one man during an hour is worth just as much as another man during an hour. Time is everything, man is nothing; he is, at most, time’s carcass.
