One today is worth two tomorrows. Lost time is never found again. Time is money. Dost thou love life? Then do not squander time, for that's the stuff that life is made of. You may delay, but time will not.
Work while it is called today, for you know not how much you may be hindered tomorrow. One today is worth two tomorrows; never leave that till tomorrow which you can do today.
Waste neither time nor money, but make the best use of both.
Time is money'... Waste it now. Pay for it later!
Tomorrow, every Fault is to be amended; but that Tomorrow never comes.
There never was a truly great man that was not at the same time truly virtuous.
He that rises late must trot all day.
At twenty years of age the will reigns; at thirty, the wit; and at forty, the judgment.
Take time for all things: great haste makes great waste.
You may delay, but time will not.
Each year one vicious habit discarded, in time might make the worst of us good.
An old young man, will be a young old man.
Take time for all things.
You made delay, but time will not, and lost time is never found again.
