All great achievements require time.

Thomas SowellSunday clears away the rust of the whole week.
Joseph AddisonI’m just a kid – I’ve got a lot of stuff to do yet.
Clint EastwoodTime management is an oxymoron. Time is beyond our control, and the clock keeps ticking regardless of how we lead our lives. Priority management is the answer to maximizing the time we have.
John C. MaxwellAdjusting to the passage of time, I think, is a key to success and to life: just being able to roll with the punches.
Dolly PartonMake measurable progress in reasonable time.
Jim RohnYou know, if you are kind of rich, the best thing is that you don’t have to think about money. The best thing you can buy with money is freedom, time. I don’t know how much I earn a year. I have no idea. I don’t know how much I pay in taxes.
Haruki MurakamiPeople with clear, written goals, accomplish far more in a shorter period of time than people without them could ever imagine.
Brian TracyTime is the least thing we have of.

Samuel JohnsonBetter three hours too soon than a minute too late.

Brian EnoThe more sand has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it.
Niccolo MachiavelliBefore beginning, plan carefully.

Alice MunroI don’t have time to stand around and listen to an 11-minute song.
Dolly PartonThe best workers, like the happiest livers, look upon their work as a kind of game: the harder they play the more enjoyable it becomes.
Robert Baden-PowellYou do things when the opportunities come along. I’ve had periods in my life when I’ve had a bundle of ideas come along, and I’ve had long dry spells. If I get an idea next week, I’ll do something. If not, I won’t do a damn thing.
Warren BuffettMy goals are so high that I don’t have time to relax in any way, shape or form.
Kevin HartI’ve been on a calendar, but I’ve never been on time.
Marilyn MonroeIt is no good getting furious if you get stuck. What I do is keep thinking about the problem but work on something else. Sometimes it is years before I see the way forward. In the case of information loss and black holes, it was 29 years.
Stephen HawkingLet your Discourse with Men of Business be Short and Comprehensive.
George WashingtonGive me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.
