"It takes an endless amount of history to make even a little tradition." — Henry James

Remember that lost time does not return.

I'd like to grow very old as slowly as possible.

Stupidity gets up early; that is why events are accustomed to happening in the morning.

He who sleeps half a day has won half a life

Patience is necessary, and one cannot reap immediately where one has sown

Fill the unforgiving minute with sixty seconds worth of distance run.
