Think not because no man sees, such things will remain unseen.
Connections are made slowly, sometimes they grow underground.
I never stop to plan. I take things step-by-step.
There are very few human beings who receive the truth, complete and staggering, by instant illumination. Most of them acquire it fragment by fragment, on a small scale, by successive developments, cellularly, like a laborious mosaic.
Human successes, like human failures, are composed of one action at a time and achieved by one person at a time.
The growth of understanding follows an ascending spiral rather than a straight line.
I look at victory as milestones on a very long highway.
No first step can be really great; it must of necessity possess more of prophecy than of achievement; nevertheless it is by the first step that a man marks the value, not only of his cause, but of himself.
Let us then be up and doing, With a heart for any fate, Still achieving, still pursuing, Learn to labor and to wait.
Every worthwhile accomplishment, big or little, has its stages of drudgery and triumph; a beginning, a struggle, and a victory.
The world is moved not only by the mighty shoves of the heroes, but also by the aggregate of the tiny pushes of each honest worker.
In great matters men show themselves as they wish to be seen; in small matters, as they are.
Backward, turn backward, O Time in your flight; Make me a child again just for tonight.
In time take time while time doth last, for time Is no time when time is past.
Time is money.
Time was made for slaves.
Know the true value of time; snatch, seize, and enjoy every moment of it. No idleness, no laziness, no procrastination: never put off till tomorrow what you can do today.
O temporal O mores! O what times! what morals!
See Time has touched me gently in his race, And left no odious furrows in my face.
Time and tide wait for no man.
