Famous quotes containing the words time and/or added:
“Our fathers waterd with their tears
This sea of time whereon we sail,
Their voices were in all mens ears
Who passd within their puissant hail.
Still the same ocean round us raves,
But we stand mute, and watch the waves.”

—Plutarch (c. 46120 A.D.)
