“Life is not long, and too much of it must not pass in idle deliberation how it shall be spent.”
“And this, too, shall pass away.' How much it expresses! How chastening in the hour of pride! How consoling in the depths of affliction!”
“life is short but it is wide. this too shall pass.”
“The problem with a life spent reading is you know too much.”
“Today..passes as yesterday, today is passing by... Tomorrow shall become today and that too shall pass!”
“As long as this deliberate refusal to understand things from above, even where such understanding is possible, continues, it is idle to talk of any final victory over materialism.”
