Some Time quotes

"There's no time like the present"
"What we are today comes from our thoughts of yesterday, and our present thoughts build our life of tomorrow: Our life is the creation of our mind." Buddha
"Time is money." Benjamin Franklin
"One today is worth two tomorrows." Benjamin Franklin
Maybe we need a separate set for Benjamin Franklin....
"Energy and persistence conquer all things."
"To succeed, jump as quickly at opportunities as you do at conclusions."
"When in doubt, don't."
"Hide not your talents. They for use were made. What's a sundial in the shade?"
"If you have something to do tomorrow, do it today."
"An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest"
"A house is not a home unless it contains food and fire for the mind as well as the body."
Could go on for ages. Quite sure you have more than enough.
Oh love the Ben Franklin quotes, Fiona. I could do a Famous Authors set of him :D
