Sophocles on time

Death is not the worst evil, but rather when we wish to die and cannot.

Ah, son, may you prove luckier than your father, but in all else like him. Then you would not prove base.

For kindness begets kindness evermore,
But he from whose mind fades the memory
Of benefits, noble is he no more.

How did it get so late so soon? It’s night before it’s afternoon. December is here before it’s June. My goodness how the time has flewn. How did it get so late so soon?

Dr. Seuss1904–1991

Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity.

Henry van Dyke1852–1933Time Is

• Love

Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.

Gautama Buddha501–501 BC
