One year passes, another one comes and the life I had thought was interrupted – its present unconnected to its past – weaves its threads together independently of me. It endures in the vast expanse of time and I pay no attention.
Relatedness is vital in a time when so many people suffer from social deafness. Emotional insensitivity being caused by a redoubtable “tin ear” makes it impossible to hear any signs of empathy or capture the vibrant qualities of ‘sharing’. (Only needed a light )
Each moment, as I lived it, had already been used up. I could not connect things together. They happened to me, they had already happened to me. The helix that spans from birth to death, the unbroken thread of habit and progress that makes a person a person, a self whole and entire, had become as discontinuous and insubstantial as a chain of smoke rings.
I’ve traveled into the human world a few times. Didn’t like it much. The air is awfully thick there, and I can almost *feel* Time crawling all over me, aging me with each passing second. Not a pleasant sensation!
You have to discover the needs of the people you want to minister to
Even time can be smelled and seen if you are observant, if you know how to smell the abstract. And if you do, you risk exposure to a certain addiction. The addiction to smell.
The youthful body untouched decays the fastest, for no living hands record its splendor; and here youth and time are wasted.
I do not waste my time interacting with corrupt government agencies.
If you have the woman you love, what more do you need? Well, besides an alibi for the time of her husband’s murder.

Reaching the ultimate laws of physics requires distancing from the paradigms of science and the paradigm of how a human brain usually thinks or functions. To understand the ultimate laws of physics, the human mind must adjust to the requirements or logic of phenomena that seem paradoxical and absurd to us as humans.
It’s time for us to do what we have been doing and that time is every day.
All days seemed long now, and at the same time terrifyingly short.
After the funeral, my life changed. I felt as if time were suddenly precious, water going down an open drain, and I could not move quickly enough. No more playing music at half-empty night clubs. No more writing songs in my apartment, songs that no one would hear.
I had drunk much wine and afterward coffee and Strega and I explained, winefully, how we did not do the things we wanted to do; we never did such things.
When I looked out at the beach, I imagined each grain of sand like a measure of time that I’d been allotted. I could either let them run through my hands or I could stop and pay attention.

Election season is always a good time to openly discuss government and corporate corruption.
It is my feeling that Time ripens all things; with Time all things are revealed; Time is the father of truth.
It has been said that time heals all wounds. I don’t agree. The wounds remain. Time – the mind, protecting its sanity – covers them with some scar tissue and the pain lessens, but it is never gone.
Deserts possess a particular magic, since they have exhausted their own futures, and are thus free of time. Anything erected there, a city, a pyramid, a motel, stands outside time. It’s no coincidence that religious leaders emerge from the desert. Modern shopping malls have much the same function. A future Rimbaud, Van Gogh or Adolf Hitler will emerge from their timeless wastes.
Time is and it isn’t… It can be your greatest enemy or your greatest friend. But it all depends on you.
Value your time and don’t waste it on the people that don’t value yours. Time is precious.
You’re only who you think you are until you aren’t anymore. And it isn’t up to you. It’s up to time. Life is timing. The test of time. We all have to take it, and none of us pass. No matter how hard you study. Perfect attendance. All that homework. Extracurricular activities. You’re still getting an F, just like everyone else. Finite. Failed. Fucked.
But what is the past? Could it be, the firmness of the past is just illusion? Could the past be a kaleidoscope, a pattern of images that shift with each disturbance of a sudden breeze, a laugh, a thought? And if the shift is everywhere, how would we know?
…there comes a time when creation seeks to rise above the creator.
If they waste your time, cut them off. You’re not a teacher, employed to educate people on the value of your time, or theirs.
Buying books would be a good thing if one could also buy the time to read them in: but as a rule the purchase of books is mistaken for the appropriation of their contents.
People can choose to waste your time but they cannot waste your talents.
This time, like all times, is a very good one, if we but know what to do with it.
SimpleComplex systems can arisefrom simple rules.It’s notthat we want to survive,it’s that we’ve been druggedand made to actas if we dowhile all the whilethe sea breaksand rolls, painlessly, under.If we’re not copying it,we’re lonely.Is this the knowledgethat demands to bepassed down?Time is made from swatchesof heaven and hell.If we’re not killing it,we’re hungry.
For we thought all the time that we were passing through time when we really weren’t, when we never have. We’ve just been moving along with time. We said, there’s another second gone, there’s another minute and another hour and another day, when, as a mater of fact the second or the minute or the hour was never gone. It was the same one all the time. It had just moved along and we have moved with it.
And he said……the greater your unease, the slower that time goes.
The memory is ancient, yet, somehow stronger than the night I was last awake. Isn’t that the thing about memories – some rust before time, while some outlive their purpose?
Time = Life, Therefore, waste your time and waste of your life, or master your time and master your life.
I didn’t know what Facebook was, and now that I do know what it is, I have to say, it sounds like a huge waste of time.
Big dreams need more time to be actualized. Do not lose focus because of what is happening in your life. Keep doing what is right.

Atom from atom yawns as farAs moon from earth, or star from star.
The future is a concept, it doesn’t exist. There is no such thing as tomorrow. There never will be, because time is always now.
It is still this moment and that will be true of every moment that follows, assuming this moment ever ends, which, if I am lucky, it won’t.
Dreams aligned with your purpose in life are quite pivotal, and the wisdom to know which dreams to pursue in life is fundamental. Otherwise, you may end up wasting your time on things that are trivial.
It was that once upon a time the world had been full of possibility and excitement and wonder, and now it held difficulty and years of toil to come, and defeat after inevitable defeat. And yet here they were, Vikram and Gil, once again making themselves a space in which they could, perhaps, be happy.
The offender must be able to give something back. But criminals are most often poor people. They have nothing to give. The answers to this are many. It is correct that our prisons are by and large filled with poor people. We let the poor pay with the only commodity that is close to being equally distributed in society: time.
Be smart enough to realize that time is your precious treasure. A treasure that you will have to manage with diligence.
If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done.
I have never killed anybody, it is true, but it is because I lacked the courage or the time, not because I lacked the desire
