Most people don’t have time to master the very mathematical details of theoretical physics.

Life is not long, and too much of it must not pass in idle deliberation how it shall be spent.

Better never than late.

I believe every human has a finite number of heartbeats. I don’t intend to waste any of mine.

Plan your work for today and every day, then work your plan.

Although almost every theoretical physicist agrees with my prediction that a black hole should glow like a hot body, it would be very difficult to verify experimentally because the temperature of a macroscopic black hole is so low.

The average family spends 30 hours in front of a television, and they say they don’t have the time to have a balanced, integrated life.

I love being busy.

The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time.

You can write a short story in two hours. Two hours a day, you have a novel in a year.

When you get into your car, shut the door and be there for just half a minute. Breathe, feel the energy inside your body, look around at the sky, the trees. The mind might tell you, ‚I don’t have time.‘ But that’s the mind talking to you. Even the busiest person has time for 30 seconds of space.

Any man can call time out, but no man can say how long the time out will be.

Don’t think in the morning. That’s a big mistake that people make. They wake up in the morning and they start thinking. Don’t think. Just execute the plan. The plan is the alarm clock goes off, you get up, you go work out. Get some.

Procrastination is the bad habit of putting off until the day after tomorrow what should have been done the day before yesterday.

We are the product of quantum fluctuations in the very early universe.

Beware the hobby that eats.

Mediocre theoretical physicists make no progress. They spend all their time understanding other people’s progress.

It takes me about two hours to run into Target. People always want a picture. They hem and haw, and they can’t spit the words out, so they waste about five minutes of my time just standing there getting ready for a picture. Just do it!

All the evidence, experimental and even a little theoretical, seems to indicate that it is the energy content which is involved in gravitation, and therefore, since matter and antimatter both represent positive energies, gravitation makes no distinction.

There is no time for cut-and-dried monotony. There is time for work. And time for love. That leaves no other time!

I often work by avoidance.

A minute of thought is greater than an hour of talk.

If you’re living in your time, you cannot help but to write about the things that are important.

Working with a lot of people at the same time is a task. I really like making stuff and getting stuff done. One of the things I really liked about Facebook was that I could always move so quickly. I wrote the original application in, like, nine days at the end of January.

When one has a great deal to put into it a day has a hundred pockets.

I have a theory that the truth is never told during the nine-to-five hours.

Please don’t ask me to do that which I’ve just said I’m not going to do, because you’re burning up time. The meter is running through the sand on you, and I am now filibustering.

Some scientists think it may be possible to capture a wormhole and enlarge it many trillions of times to make it big enough for a human or even a spaceship to enter.

Just in terms of allocation of time resources, religion is not very efficient. There’s a lot more I could be doing on a Sunday morning.

Time is money.

While we are postponing, life speeds by.

90 percent of my time is spent on 10 percent of the world.

We record when I have a hole in the schedule. Sometimes night, sometimes afternoon, sometimes morning – we fit it in when we can. I prep for episodes all the time.

Do the hard jobs first. The easy jobs will take care of themselves.

All things will be produced in superior quantity and quality, and with greater ease, when each man works at a single occupation, in accordance with his natural gifts, and at the right moment, without meddling with anything else.

When you have two busy kids running around the house, returning e-mails is a task, let alone surfing the web.

To a man of pleasure every moment appears to be lost, which partakes not of the vivacity of amusement.

Writing is my love. If you love something, you find a lot of time. I write for two hours a day, usually starting at midnight; at times, I start at 11.

If a projectile were deprived of the force of gravity, it would not be deflected toward the earth but would go off in a straight line into the heavens and do so with uniform motion, provided that the resistance of the air were removed.

It takes a long time to bring the past up to the present.

That nice, soft pillow and the warm blanket, and it’s all comfortable, and no one wants to leave that comfort – but if you can wake up early in the morning, get a head start on everyone else that’s still sleeping, get productive time doing things that you need to do – that’s a huge piece to moving your life forward.

Spend more time in study and prayer. That’s the secret of successful evangelism.

According to ‚M‘ theory, ours is not the only universe. Instead, ‚M‘ theory predicts that a great many universes were created out of nothing.

If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done.

Work as if you were to live a hundred years. Pray as if you were to die tomorrow.

When there’s so much left to do, why spend your time focusing on things you’ve already done, counting trophies or telling stories about the good old days?

To write it, it took three months; to conceive it three minutes; to collect the data in it all my life.

People with clear, written goals, accomplish far more in a shorter period of time than people without them could ever imagine.

My biographers… would like to have my time at the court almost complete before they finish the book. We decided… to flip the order.

Tell me I have to be somewhere, and I’ll be there 20 minutes early and stay there longer than anybody else. You hold up a lot of people if you’re not on time.

No, there is literally nothing on the business side that I wouldn’t sacrifice in a heartbeat to have an extra couple of hours‘ writing. Nothing.

When someone is impatient and says, ‚I haven’t got all day,‘ I always wonder, How can that be? How can you not have all day?

Everywhere is within walking distance if you have the time.

The end of labor is to gain leisure.

I explain the law of compensation like this: ‚Returns are minimal in spite of massive effort at the start, yet returns can be massive with minimal effort over time.

It wasn’t so long ago that I was a working mom myself. And I know that sometimes, much as we all hate to admit it, it’s just easier to park the kids in front of the TV for a few hours, so we can pay the bills or do the laundry or just have some peace and quiet for a change.

Imaginary time is a new dimension, at right angles to ordinary, real time.

You may delay, but time will not.

Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted.

Some people die at 25 and aren’t buried until 75.

Better three hours too soon than a minute too late.
