Need to Kill Some Time? Read This!
I have carefully selected five quotes by popular thinkers, that promote handling this precious and finite ressource more consciously. Whenever I slack off or want to “kill some time” out of bad habit, I go and re-read them.
These quotes remind me to make every waking moment count for something:
“A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life.” — Charles Darwin
“You may delay, but time will not.” — Benjamin Franklin
“Time is what we want most, but what we use worst.” — William Penn
“As if you could kill time without injuring eternity.” — Henry David Thoreau
“There is more to life than simply increasing its speed.” — Mahatma Gandhi
And one of my own…
“Don’t try to kill time — time will kill you.” — Scollurio
Thank you so much for reading this (time)piece.
If you want to know, why I think it’s important to let yourself get bored again, read this.
