We cannot separate our lives from time. why is it that we are so extravagant, so thoughtless, in our waste of time, especially in youth, when we cling so tenaciously to life? you cannot separate a wasted hour from the same duration of your life. if you waste your time, you must waste your life. if you improve your time, you cannot help improving your life.

We Cannot Separate Our Lives From Time.

Orison Swett Marden
We cannot separate our lives from time. why is it that we are so extravagant, so thoughtless, in our waste of time, especially in youth, when we cling so tenaciously to life? you cannot separate a wasted hour from the same duration of your life. if you waste your time, you must waste your life. if you improve your time, you cannot help improving your life.

Time waste differs from material waste in that there can be no salvage. the easiest of all wastes and the hardest to correct is the waste of time, because wasted time does not litter the floor like wasted material.

Absolute, true, and mathematical time, in and of itself and of its own nature, without reference to anything external, flows uniformly and by another name is called duration. relative, apparent, and common time is any sensible and external measure (precise or imprecise) of duration by means of motion; such as a measure-for example, an hour, a day, a month, a year-is commonly used instead of true time.
