It is also amazing to me how little people value the one thing they cannot control, or create, or get more of: TIME . Because of this, I complied what I believe are the 27 best quotations dealing on the subject.  I hope you enjoy them and feel not they be a waste of your time.    “Until you value yourself, you won't value your time.

Once again the priest apologizes. "Sorry sister but you know the flesh is weak." Arriving at the convent, the nun gets out and the priest goes on his way. Once he arriv...
