• When we spend our lives waiting until we're perfect or bulletproof before we walk into the arena, we ultimately sacrifice relationships and opportunities that may not be recoverable, we squander our precious time, and we turn our backs on our gifts, those unique contributions that only we can make.

• Another activity that can detract us from the proper way is watching television excessively or viewing improper movies. While fine productions on these media are uplifting and entertaining, we need to be very selective in choosing what we see and how much of our time such an activity deserves. Our precious time must not be diverted to the sideline attractions of vulgar language, immoral conduct, pornography, and violence.

  Joseph B. Wirthlin

• Siento verdadera aversión por la enseñanza. La perenne tarea de un profesor de matemáticas es sólo enseñar el ABC de su ciencia; la mayoría de los pocos alumnos que van un paso más allá, y por lo general para quedarse con la metáfora, se quedan en el proceso de recopilación de información, se convierten sólo en Halbwisser [alguien que tiene un conocimiento superficial de la materia], porque los talentos más raros no quieren hacerse educar mediante cursos de conferencias, sino formarse a sí mismos. Y con este ingrato trabajo el profesor pierde su precioso tiempo.

  Carl Friedrich Gauss

• It is not the reading of many books which is necessary to make a man wise or good, but the well-reading of a few, could he be sure to have the best. And it is not possible to read over many on the same subject without a great deal of loss of precious time.

• (Whispered to a novice while standing in front of the convent library) Oh! I would have been sorry to have read all those books...If I had read them, I would have broken my head, and I would have wasted precious time that I could have employed very simply in loving God.

• There is an elementary aspiration which undergirds the humane impulse in our history and our culture and binds us together as political activists. This is a simple, irreducible, indisputable aspiration. It is the 'dream of justice' for a beloved community, in which the level of terror in people's lives is sharply reduced or maybe eliminated. It is the belief that extremes and excesses of inequality must be reduced so that each person is free to fully develop his or her full potential. This is why we take precious time out of our lives and give it to politics.

  Paul Wellstone

• Enamorarse de una hipótesis y no estar dispuesto a aceptar un "no" como respuesta es un fallo común que yo mismo he padecido. Enamorarse de una hipótesis puede hacer perder años de tiempo precioso. A menudo no hay un sí definitivo, aunque a menudo puede haber un no definitivo.

• The difficult tasks to be performed are not the ones that mean physical and mental labor, but the ones that you dislike, are the ones that you do not love. There are unpleasant angles to nearly every important job to be done in this world, but there must be an over all love for doing each, else precious time and effort are uselessly wasted. I shall never forget noting a sign above a construction job that read: "Builder of Difficult Foundations." That man must have loved that calling, else he would not have made a point of advertising the fact!

  George Matthew Adams

  Love, Jobs, Mean

• If you feel like you're at 50 percent with someone and that's as far as you'll get, you're wasting precious time. You should always be with someone who enriches your life and inspires you to be the best you can be.

  Inspire, Like You, Being The Best

• Los niños ven cualquier cosa, y cuando una cadena utiliza el crimen y la violencia y otros artilugios de pacotilla para monopolizar la atención de un niño, es peor que quitarle un caramelo a un bebé. Es quitarle un tiempo precioso al proceso de crecimiento.

• Es la creencia de que hay que reducir los extremos y los excesos de desigualdad para que cada persona sea libre de desarrollar plenamente todo su potencial. Por eso dedicamos un tiempo precioso de nuestras vidas a la política.

• We insist on being Someone, with a capital S. We get security from defining ourselves as worthless or worthy, superior or inferior. We waste precious time exaggerating or romanticizing or belittling ourselves with a complacent surety that yes, that’s who we are. We mistake the openness of our being—the inherent wonder and surprise of each moment—for a solid, irrefutable self. Because of this misunderstanding, we suffer.

  Pema Chodron

• Cuando tu intención es lo suficientemente grande SIEMPRE encontrarás el tiempo y la energía para cumplir tus deseos. Puedes poner excusas de lo contrario, pero aferrarte a tus viejas historias no es más que otra forma de perder un tiempo precioso.

• Without courage, honor, compassion, pity, love and sacrifice, as William Faulkner pointed out, we know not of love, but lust. We debase our audience. But we can ennoble and enrich our viewers and ourselves in our journey through this good time, this precious time, this great and wonderful experience we call life.

  Earl Hamner, Jr.

  Sacrifice, Journey, Compassion
