dark and backward abysm of time

"What seest thou else In the dark backward and abysm of time?"....... "To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day To the last syllable of recorded time, And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing"

Name:

"where there is love, nothing is too much trouble and there is always time"

We are such stuff that dreams are made of...

Quote worthy.....

"Time is the substance I am made of. Time is a river which sweeps me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger that devours me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire that consumes me, but I am the fire. "
-Jorge Luis Borges, Labryrinths

"Drink your tea slowly and reverently, as if it is the axis on which the world earth revolves - slowly, evenly, without rushing toward the future. Live the actual moment. Only this moment is life." -Thich Nat Hahn

"The bad news is time flies. The good news is you're the pilot." - Michael Althsuler

"Never do today what you can put off till tomorrow." - Mathew Browne
(this one's my personal favourite and my mantra... most unfortunate...)

cheerio ppl....no thoughts of my own today, hence your all spared of a mini-epic style post!

"Nothing is as far away as one moment ago"

sweet!
does that mean i can postpone, delay, conveniently forget the things that were meant to be done now and leave them for consideration till tomorrow (and why tomorrow? why not next week?)?

Its a sweet mantra and i live by it quite readily...and here's that Faust quote i mentioned

"Let's plunge ourselves into the roar of time, the whirl of accident; may pain and pleasure, success and failure, shift as they will - Its only action that can make a man."

I think its amazing...One day i want to write like that!
