Cecelia AhernTime is more precious than gold, more precious than diamonds, more precious than oil or any valuable treasures. It is time that we do not have enough of; it is time that causes the war within our hearts, and so we must spend it wisely.
About This Quote
Time is the most precious thing that we have. It is more precious than any other treasure on earth, because it is limited. It is limited to the amount of hours in a day. The time between now and then will be gone if we do not spend it wisely. Life may seem meaningless if we are forced to live with regrets of missed opportunities or wasted time.
