Civilization was like a mad dash that lasted fie thousand years. Progress begot more progress; countless miracles gave birth to more miracles; humankind seemed to possess the power of gods; but in the end, the real power was wielded by time.

About This Quote

The quote above is very important because it explains the importance of time. Time is the only thing that can make us all equal. It is the only thing that can make us all on the same level. Everyone has the same amount of time on earth and we should cherish it and use it right. Because it will be gone one day and we may never get another chance to do things that we want to do.
