Let us now examine how we have employed our time, and let us see whether we have not, in point of fact, thrown away the larger portion of that which has been already granted to us. ... Time is lost when it is ill-employed; as when it is spent in the society of evil-disposed or frivolous persons, or in gossiping and tale-bearing, in oppressing the poor, or in any way infringing the laws of God and of His Church.

Wasting time is one of the worst faults of the world. Life is so short, every moment is so precious and yet, we live as if life will never end.

People spend too much time doing and not enough time thinking about what they should be doing.

It is not that we have a short time to live but that we waste a lot of it.

If I do not waste time, I am wasting my time.

Life is a waste of time and time is a waste of life, so let's all get wasted and have the time of our lives.

It's not that we have a short time to live, but that we waste a lot of it.

Sadly, people today not only spend the time they have, they also spend away their futures. To accrue debt is to sell away our future time.

If you don’t plan your time, someone else will help you waste it.

Time is wasted because there is so much time available.

When we waste time, we’re procrastinating. When we can’t manage our attention well, we’re distracted. And when we don’t cultivate our energy levels, we’re tired, or “burned out.

It is not that we have a short space of time, but that we waste much of it. Life is long enough.

The most dangerous way to lose time is not to spend it having fun, but to spend it doing fake work. When you spend time having fun, you know you're being self-indulgent. Alarms start to go off fairly quickly. If I woke up one morning and sat down on the sofa and watched TV all day, I'd feel like something was terribly wrong. ... But the same alarms don't go off on the days when I get nothing done, because I'm doing stuff that seems, superficially, like real work.

Life is a waste of time. Time is a waste of life. Get wasted all the time and you'll have the time of your life.
