Quotes abound when it comes to ‘time’. It’s the resource too many take for granted. In Chapter X, we cannot afford to lose valuation for it. Or living with purpose (even if your purpose, at the moment, is to sit on a beach and watch the waves).

- “Men talk of killing time, while time quietly kills them.” – Dion Boucicault
- “There is one kind of robber whom the law does not strike at, and who steals what is most precious to men: time.” – Napoleon I
