time quotes

- Take time to deliberate; but when the time for action arrives, stop thinking and go in. (Andrew Jackson) [take/time/time/action]
- The holy time is quiet as a nun
Breathless with adoration. (William Wordsworth) [time] - The future comes one day at a time. (Dean Acheson) [future/day/time]
- Life is a corrupting process from the time a child learns to play his mother off against his father in the politics of when to go to bed; he who fears corruption fears life. (Saul Alinsky) [life/process/time/child]

- Beauty depends on size as well as symmetry. No very small animal can be beautiful, for looking at it takes so small a portion of time that the impression of it will be confused.

- It is not opium which makes me work but its absence, and in order for me to feel its absence it must from time to time be present. (Antonin Artaud) [order/time/time/present]
- It is almost impossible to be a doctor and an honest man, but it is obscenely impossible to be a psychiatrist without at the same time bearing the stamp of the most incontestable madness: that of being unable to resist that old atavistic reflex of the mass of humanity, which makes any man of science who is absorbed by this mass a kind of natural and inborn enemy of all genius. (Antonin Artaud) [time/being/science/genius]
- Every time you win, it diminishes the fear a little bit. You never really cancel the fear of losing; you keep challenging it. (Arthur Ashe) [time/fear/fear]
- In every great time there is some one idea at work which is more powerful than any other, and which shapes the events of the time and determines their ultimate issues. (Francis Bacon) [time/more/time]
- As the births of living creatures, at first, are ill-shapen: so are all Innovations, which are the births of time. (Francis Bacon) [time]
- He that will not apply new remedies, must expect new evils: for Time is the greatest innovator: and if Time, of course, alter things to the worse, and wisdom and counsel shall not alter them to the better, what shall be the end?. (Francis Bacon) [willpower/time/time/wisdom]
- Antiquities are history defaced, or some remnants of history which have casually escaped the shipwreck of time. (Francis Bacon) [time]
- To choose time is to save time. (Francis Bacon) [time/time]
- Time is the measure of business. (Francis Bacon) [time/measure/business]
- There is never time in the future in which we will work out our salvation. The challenge is in the moment; the time is always now. (James Baldwin) [time/future/willpower/salvation]
- No one can possibly know what is about to happen: it is happening, each time, for the first time, for the only time. (James Baldwin) [time/time/time]
- Every great work of art has two faces, one toward its own time and one toward the future, toward eternity. (Daniel Barenboim) [art/time/future]
- The best time to make friends is before you need them. (Ethel Barrymore) [time]
- The trouble with life is that there are so many beautiful women and so little time. (John Barrymore) [life/women/time]
- Women complain about premenstrual syndrome, but I think of it as the only time of the month I can be myself. (Roseanne Barr) [women/think/time]
- What I claim is to live to the full the contradiction of my time, which may well make sarcasm the condition of truth. (Roland Barthes) [time/condition/truth]
- Boredom is like a pitiless zooming in on the epidermis of time. Every instant is dilated and magnified like the pores of the face. (Jean Baudrillard) [time/face]
- Deep down, no one really believes they have a right to live. But this death sentence generally stays tucked away, hidden beneath the difficulty of living. If that difficulty is removed from time to time, death is suddenly there, unintelligibly. (Jean Baudrillard) [right/death/time/time]
- The surprises of thought are like those of love: they wear out. But here too you can carry on for a long time doing your conjugal duty. (Jean Baudrillard) [love/time]
- The great person is ahead of their time, the smart make something out of it, and the blockhead, sets themselves against it. (Jean Baudrillard) [time]
- Laws and institutions, like clocks, must occasionally be cleaned, wound up, and set to true time. (Henry Ward Beecher) [time]
- If a man meets with injustice, it is not required that he shall not be roused to meet it; but if he is angry after he has had time to think upon it, that is sinful. The flame is not wring, but the coals are. (Henry Ward Beecher) [time/think]
- Never shall I forget the time I spent with you. Please continue to be my friend, as you will always find me yours. (Ludwig van Beethoven) [forget/time/willpower/find]
- All religions have honored the beggar. For he proves that in a matter at the same time as prosaic and holy, banal and regenerative as the giving of alms, intellect and morality, consistency and principles are miserably inadequate. (Walter Benjamin) [matter/time/intellect/]
