Don’t waste time. Don’t waste it in idleness; don’t waste it in regretting the time already wasted; don’t waste it in resolutions a thousand times repeated, never to be carried out. Don’t waste your time. Use all of it. Sleep, work, rest, think. – Arthur Brisbane

Frodo: “I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.” Gandalf: “So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil.”

“Anyone who imagines that bliss is normal is going to waste a lot of time running around shouting that he has been robbed. The fact is that most putts don’t drop, most beef is tough, most children grow up to be just people, most successful marriages require a high degree of mutual toleration, and most jobs are more often dull than otherwise. Life is just like an old time rail journey … delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride.” ― Jenkin Lloyd Jones

“People like to say that everything’s ‘perfect,’ and you look around and see that life is anything but that! But just as a weight bench is perfect for strengthening muscles but too uncomfortable for sleeping or sitting back and watching TV, life provides the resistance you need to learn and grow. You didn’t come here to sit back, relax and feel happy all the time; you came here to grow, and the way to grow is to bravely face the problems before you and improve yourself in the process. Life’s imperfections provide perfect opportunities to build your spiritual muscles.” – Shaun Roundy
