We look forward to the time when the Power of Love will replace the Love of Power. Then will our world know the blessings of peace. Perhaps someday there will come a time when the power of love will replace the love of power. Only then will our world know all the blessings of the world.
Love is eternity given in time.
If in the early spring of youth it was possible to discern something more behind the external features and charm, which will eventually develop into a mature, adult feeling, then these people meet their autumn and winter together. And they live happily ever after...
In ordinary times, we all, knowing it or not, understand that there is a love for which there are no limits, and yet we agree, and even quite calmly, that our love is, in essence, so-so, second-class. Albert Camus "The Plague"
I thought about you every day. I asked myself: how do you live, are you happy? I wished you happiness. But at the same time, I was tormented by jealousy that you could live and be happy without me.
I was so looking forward to spring, because you once told me that spring is our season with you ...
Love is attention multiplied by time. As far as you give your child attention and time, so you can count on the fruits.
There is no more wonderful time in life than the very first days of love, when with every meeting, glance and hope, something new and joyful settles in your soul.
The strongest love is unrequited. I'd rather never know, but this is the truth: there's nothing worse than loving someone who doesn't love you, and at the same time, nothing more beautiful than this has ever happened to me in my life. Loving someone who loves you is narcissism. Loving someone who doesn't love you - wow, that's love. Frederic Begbeder "Love lives for three years"
Spring is a time to fall in love, summer is a time to love, autumn is a time to part, winter is a time to suffer.
By the will of fortune, a person can rule the whole world for a while, but by the will of love and goodness, he can rule the world forever.
How do you know that you're in love?
I am always hungry and never get cold.Frederic Begbeder "Ideal"
Everything is relative, depends on time and place - love and friendship, life and death.
The meeting of two is sometimes also a matter of time. Find each other at the right time. Mark Levy "Shadow Stealer"
Only in your arms I realized how much time was wasted.
Love is an upswing to eternity and a downswing to a time where it undergoes corruption and death.
Declarations of love often resemble signals of the exact time - they are valid only at the moment of their utterance.
Love...
she repeated slowly, in an inner voice, and suddenly, at the same time as she unhooked the lace, she added:
“That’s why I don’t like this word, because it means too much to me, much more than you can understand,” and she looked into his face.
- Goodbye! Leo Tolstoy "Anna Karenina"
Spring is the time of love and it doesn't matter whether you fall in love or not .. you will fall in love ...
Love does not lie on the road like a stone; it must be created like bread; it must be constantly recreated and recreated.
I always feel like I'll meet you around the corner.
In the spring it is always easy to think, dream easily, and the world, forgetting for a while about space and time, loses its tension, and something warm, soft and tender is poured into the soul...
When you remember the time when you loved, it seems that nothing has happened since then.
François Mauriac
It is easier to be a lover than a husband for the simple reason that it is more difficult to be witty every day than to say pretty things from time to time. Being a lover is easier than being a husband for the simple reason that it's much harder to be witty every day than it is to compliment every now and then. Honore de Balzac
For love to live forever, it is enough to forget about time. This modern world kills love. Frederic Begbeder "Love lives for three years"
You hurt - accept it. Endure it until it passes, until time erases all traces.
Love has no past tense.
Unrequited love is like... a sore throat. Quite compatible with life, just unpleasant, but it is impossible not to think about it. Tea with lemon and honey helps for a while, and also time and silence. When you speak only becomes more painful - even breath intercepts.
Mom's love is a garden in which the sun always shines and the season is always spring.
Love doesn't end. Perhaps, over time, it changes strength and shade, but it never disappears without a trace.
Think about it, there must be higher love. Down in the heart or hidden in the stars above. Without it, life is a wasted time. Look inside your heart, I "ll look inside mine. Where should truly sublime love be? Hiding in the depths of the heart or hiding in the stars above our heads, because without it life is just a waste of time. Look in your heart, I will try to do same with mine Steve Winwood
Love is a short period of time when a person of the opposite sex has exactly the same opinion about us as we do. Magdalena the Pretender
There is no worse torture in the world than to love and despise at the same time.
And I also love you, and it's raining outside and time...
Love is tested by time, different situations and actions! No need to make men unhappy, you just need to give them a pendal in time!
There is something that has a special magic not to depend on us! What's this? Time! And no matter how much we want, no matter how much we strive, no matter how much effort we put in, time is not interested in us, or our opinion, or what the days and years are doing to us! This is an indicator of the highest power that exists in this world. It is this concept that rules everything and always, and even our life is subject to it! And that is why there are the sharpest statements about him, he has always been spoken of with special admiration and reverence. Here you will find quotes about time. We will show the phrases of great people about time, what they thought and how they treated it.
We would like to tell you about those words and sayings that can characterize the time:
- Einstein gave his opinion on such a constantly fickle concept;
- What are the opinions about time and love;
- The saying that time flies imperceptibly for a person.
Everything has its own biography. It's just that time doesn't have it. It is difficult to imagine that time was once born. And before that? Didn't he exist? Is it possible? Catchphrases help to understand the definition of this concept and its meaning for people.
How often quotes about time show that we do not understand its course, transience, its influence and its price. Some people say that time is money. And another argues that time is priceless. And one of the greatest scientists of the Universe, Einstein, accustomed to analyze everything, understand and check the facts, suddenly announced to the whole world that what he so often used as a quantity, on which all his famous theories are based, which turned the understanding of this world upside down, is just… an illusion! Yes Yes! Delusion, deceit, fantasy and phantom! This is how reference publications characterize the word "illusion".
If Einstein knew what he was talking about, then how can this "fantasy" influence us so inexorably that people, not wanting it, begin to plan their short days and lives, writing down minutes, hours and years? But there are other characteristics, other aphorisms about time. Not only Einstein, but philosophers of different times and cultures have expressed their opinion. What these extraordinary personalities thought, and how they will help us to expand this concept, it will become clear from the words they said about time with meaning.
Three things never come back: Time, Word, Opportunity. So... do not waste time, choose your words, do not miss the opportunity.

Beautiful and meaningful
In contrast to Einstein's opinion of a vague, almost mysterious illusion, other thinkers gave time more importance and defined it in very clear outlines. Such diverse views provide the most voluminous information and reveal all the possibilities that time has, quotes help to see this.
Someone gives healing properties to this concept, saying that time heals. The author understands exactly how important it is sometimes to be patient, waiting for changes. Like a pill taken, the passed period should affect the well-being and circumstances of people if misfortunes fall upon them. The same principles guide people who expect something good from life, but for a long time do not have what they want.
Time strengthens friendship but weakens love.
(Jean La Bruyère)
It's stupid to plan for life, without being master even of tomorrow.
(Seneca)
Life is a very short time between two eternities.
(Carlyle Thomas)
time passes, that's the trouble. The past grows and the future shrinks. There are less and less chances to do something - and all the more offensive for what I did not have time to do.
(Haruki Murakami)
The time will come, when you decide it's over. This will be the beginning.
(Louis Lamour)
And whatever happens to us TOMORROW…
We have TODAY and NOW in stock!

To find out the price of a month, ask a mother who has given birth prematurely.
For weekly pricing, ask the weekly editor.
To know the price of an hour, ask a lover who is waiting for his beloved.
To find out the price of a minute, ask a latecomer to the train.
To find out the value of a second, ask someone who has lost a loved one in a car accident.
For the price of one thousandth of a second, ask an Olympic silver medalist.
The hands of the clock won't stop running. So cherish every moment of your life. And appreciate today as the greatest gift that you have been given.
(Bernard Werber. Empire of Angels)
The common man thinks how to pass the time. A smart person thinks about how to use time.
Every minute when you get mad at someone, you lose 60 seconds of happiness that you will never get back.
(Ralph Waldo Emerson)
Time is like a mosquito: it's good to kill him with a book.
(Konstantin Melikhan)
All that matters does not happen urgently. Anything that is urgent is just vanity.
(Xiang Tzu)
Among the statements there are also about love. These topics have been intertwined for centuries, since there is no time limit for eternal feelings, and you cannot limit them even to a lifetime. Some still keep freshness, as if we are talking about modern people and their feelings.
Is it possible to find the day, hour, year? Nobody heard about it. But there are cases of lost time, when it was wasted by those who did not appreciate it. It is no coincidence that in the modern world there is a really operating organization that has put minutes above money. And in it you can get services under certain conditions. And usefully spent time is a good use of it, which characterizes it with dignity.
About the transience of life
Aphorisms about time and its swiftness are probably the most famous and widespread. These words are the best, they tell about its main features. After all, sooner or later, but every person thinks about how quickly his life has flown by. I want to find an explanation for this, and understand what the meaning of existence is.
There are many such expressions, since each of us wants to give an assessment of the lived period and outlined plans for the future. Any such quote only confirms in the thought that life is fleeting, and plans and ideas are always not enough of these. But this understanding does not always come in time. That is why the experience of those who came to such an idea and shared it is invaluable.
Use every moment, so as not to repent later and not to regret that he missed his youth.
(Paulo Coelho)
You are too busy what was and what will be... The sages say: the past is forgotten, the future is closed, the present is bestowed. That's why it's called real.
("Kung Fu Panda")
Don't say you don't have time. You have exactly as much time as Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, Pasteur, Helen Keller, Albert Einstein had.
(Jackson Brown)
Between success and failure lies the abyss, whose name is "I have no time."
(Franklin Field)
Time lost with pleasure, is not considered lost.
(John Lennon)
Yesterday- this is history.
Tomorrow is a mystery.
Today's gift!
(Alice Morse Earl)
Time flew like a bird. It can't be stopped or brought back. And how you spend your life will show whether you were wise enough to learn from the experience of those who shared their observations. This true collection, which is presented on our website, is imbued with the magic of real people, where each fate is an invaluable lesson for all those who are looking for an explanation of who we are, what and where our life goes, what things we considered more important for ourselves, what we paid attention to they have so much meaning.
Life is always happening now. Get comfortable in the present moment...

Time! Why are you being so disgusting towards me? Why are you running away? Second after second, day after day, year after year, you just slip through your fingers, not allowing you to do anything.
You have to be attached to something. Otherwise, there will come a time when you just collapse down. And you won't get up. And this is inevitable.
When you follow. Or you wait. Time drags on slowly. It's cunning. And smart. Turns us as he wants. And one has only to turn away, get distracted, think - it frantically accelerates its pace. After all, there are two times: when we wait and which we manage ourselves. - Camus A.

If time is the most precious thing, then wasting time is the greatest waste. – B. Franklin
Most of us know only a couple of quotes about time, which boil down to the fact that time, firstly, is money, and, secondly, business is time, and fun is an hour. The author of the first statement is the American scientist and politician Benjamin Franklin, and the second is the Russian Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich. And, in principle, for many, the knowledge of smart and beautiful phrases about time ends here. What else do people know exactly about time, that it should be valued. True, despite this knowledge, some people prefer to "kill" time, rather than spend it usefully. We propose to combine the first and second - to spend a few minutes with benefit: to read, perhaps, new quotes about time with meaning. After all, throughout the history of mankind, billions of people have tried to understand what time is, and thousands of writers and scientists have tried to give it their own definition. We have collected their quotes on this subject especially for you.

Time is a paradoxical thing. And the attitude of people towards him is the same. We seem to have learned how to use it, but still we waste it and forget about its significance, about the value of every minute, second, moment. We know that the time spent cannot be returned, but we continue to waste it on unnecessary activities. Over time, we will all understand that our life passes unnoticed, and that we cannot bring back what has already passed. But it will be too late… We hope that these sayings and quotes about time will help you understand its value.

For a better understanding of time, you can try to compare it with a fast and turbulent river that cannot be stopped. It is like sand that seeps through the fingers. That is why it is necessary to understand the value of every minute we live, it is important not to waste time on trifles. Time is ruthless and inexorable, it takes away from us all the most precious things, from youth to people dear to us. One of the quotes says that time is the best healer. Controversial assertion. After all, it can hurt itself. You could say time is a good teacher. This will be closer to the truth. Remember the value of time.
Phrases and quotes about time and its significance of great people
Alcohol, hashish, hydrocyanic acid and strychnine are just weak solutions. The most reliable poison is time.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
I never watch the clock: time is made for man, not man for time.
Francois Rabelais
People spend their lives in anticipation, in the determination to indulge in serene happiness sometime later, when there is time for this. But the present has one advantage over any other time: it belongs to us. The past opportunities have passed, the future has not yet arrived. We can stock up on pleasures as we would stock up on wine; but if we tarry too much in their use, we shall find both sour with age!
Charles Caleb Colton
Seize this hour before it eludes you. Rare are moments of life, truly great and significant.

Whether we like it or not, our life is fleeting and there is no way to "pause" it in order to look around. As it was once said, the next second we will not be younger than this one. Such transience of time can be frightening, but you can treat it philosophically - as an inevitable fact. Understand that you need to live here and now. It is possible that quotes about time with meaning will make you think about it. After all, sooner or later, everyone can face the fact that, waking up one morning, he will understand that in his life he did not have time to do anything of what he dreamed of. Yes, time is cruel, it will not spare anyone. Therefore, you can not postpone your plans, dreams and desires for later.

With every passing second, a person inexorably grows older, and because of the wasted time allotted to him, he loses a lot. Lost deeds, missed opportunities, wasted weeks, months and years. All this is the result of the inability to manage their own time. But, unfortunately, you realize it too late.

Erich Fromm
The ability to focus and use time properly is everything.
Lee Iacocca
The duration of time, although clearly measured in seconds, minutes, hours, and so on, but the thief's perception of time differs depending on age. Children believe that time passes, does not even pass, but stretches very slowly. They want to grow up faster. Adults, on the contrary, believe that time is running and, unfortunately, often runs past. Adults would like to return the happy moments of their childhood, but it's too late. And the best quotes about time will confirm this for you. There is something to think about here...
Words with meaning about seconds, minutes and hours
Lost time is a time in which we did not live a full human life, a time not enriched by experience, creativity, joy and suffering.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Once upon a time, Plato said: “Time takes away everything,” and although this expression is more than one hundred years old, it still remains relevant. But not only Plato liked to philosophize about the course of being and the transience of life. Many famous writers and great thinkers have similar sayings. So many lines have been written on the topic “Time” that it is simply impossible to count them all.
And therefore, let's plunge into the world of literature and draw some wisdom from there. Consider the most striking and beautiful statements of the great about time and its course - about the eternal series of life and death. And who knows, perhaps this knowledge will be able to radically change someone's worldview.
Transience of everything
I would like to start with the fact that many statements about time show us how fleeting everything is in the world. It would seem that just yesterday we were little children and ran around the parental yard, and today we are already watching our own grandchildren grow up. And this order of things applies to everything that surrounds us.
That is why many sayings about time remind us that everything in this world has its end.
- "Minutes, like fast horses, fly without looking back. You look around - the sunset is so close that it can no longer be turned back" (Al-Maarri).
- "Life will fly by like a crazy wind, and nothing will hold it back"
- “Alas, one cannot return one’s youth, become again as unrestrainedly bold and beautiful. Even a youthful gait cannot be turned back” (Yu. Bondarev).
- "The closer old age is, the faster the clock moves."
- "In this life, only the tide and time do not wait for anyone" (V. Scott).
Learn to value time
However, realizing the transience of time is only half the battle. After that, you need to learn how to take care of it, cherish every second you live. After all, time is the most valuable currency in the world. But unlike real bills, it cannot be borrowed or stolen from another person.
And therefore, many tirelessly remind us of how important it is to appreciate every second of your life:
- "The wise use of time makes it even more precious" (J. J. Rousseau).
- "Learning to enjoy the past means learning to live doubly" (Martial).
- “He who dares to waste an hour of his time simply does not know how to live” (Charles Darwin).
- "Time does not wait for anyone, and even more so does not forgive a single missed moment" (N. Garin-Mikhailovsky).
- "One today is much more expensive than two tomorrows" (B. Franklin).
How to spend your life
Well, for those who have realized everything, there is only one thing left - to learn how to spend it wisely. After all, there are thousands of different possibilities and chances that should be tried and tested. This is the only way to feel the true taste of life, so that later you will not regret anything. And here are the most striking expressions about time, proving this truth:
- "Every new day is a student of yesterday"
- "Life ceases to be short for those who have learned to use it wisely" (Seneca Jr.).
- “Only a few are able to see the world in all its details. Most involuntarily limit themselves to one of its versions or several areas; but the less a person knows about the present and the past, the more fragile his hopes for a brighter future become” (Sigmund Freud).
Sayings about time: the wonderful world of watches
In conclusion, here are a few more sayings about the passage of time left to us by the great minds of the past. And let the depth of their wisdom become a real find for the inquisitive minds of our time.
- "People with a sour expression pass thousands of hours past them, forgetting to enjoy them. And then, with the advent of old age, they sadly remember them" (A. Schopenhauer).
- "A mediocre person thinks about how to kill time. A talented person seeks to use it correctly" (A. Schopenhauer).
- "Only time can heal all wounds" (Menander).
- "Life seems long if it is filled with something important. Therefore, let's measure it by actions, and not by the hours that have passed" (Seneca).
- "If time is the most precious thing, then wasting it is the greatest crime"
