"It takes less time to do a thing right, than it does to explain why you did it wrong." ― Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Topic(s): Time More From Henry Wadsworth Longfellow "The best thing one can do when it’s raining is to let it rain." "It is difficult to know at what moment love begins; it is less difficult to know that it has begun." "Perseverance is a great element of success. If you only knock long enough and loud enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody." More In Time "I’m being treated like a sex object, cried the lady. No matter. I will take care of it, said Time soothingly."― Mason Cooley "If I have to move up in a building, I choose the elevator over the escalator. Because one time I was riding the escalator and I tripped. I fell down the stairs for an hour and a half."― Demetri Martin "I’ve done an awful lot of stuff that’s a monument to public patience."― Tyrone Power
