"If time be of all things the most precious, wasting time must be the greatest prodigality." ― Benjamin Franklin Topic(s): Time More From Benjamin Franklin "I look upon death to be as necessary to our constitution as sleep. We shall rise refreshed in the morning." "Do good to your friends to keep them, to your enemies to win them." "I conceive that the great part of the miseries of mankind are brought upon them by false estimates they have made of the value of things." More In Time "As long as we are persistence in our pursuit of our deepest destiny, we will continue to grow. We cannot choose the day or time when we will fully bloom. It happens in its own time."― Denis Waitley "Regret for the things we did can be tempered by time; it is regret for the things we did not do that is inconsolable."― Sydney J. Harris "Don’t limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time."― Rabindranath Tagore
