You can’t even trade a single fart with the next guy. Each and every one of us has to live out his own life. Don’t waste time thinking about who’s most talented.

Zen ni kike (To you) (Tokyo: Daihorinkaku, 1987)Kodo Sawaki
Wasting our time? This is a waste of time, to live in peace and plenty with my wife and children? May I waste the rest of my life, then.
Orson Scott Card
This loving person is a person who abhors waste — waste of time, waste of human potential. How much time we waste. As if we were going to live forever.
Leo Buscaglia
Many childless single woman would be at my age already in panic. Also I have been thinking for the last 3 years, why I have been sacrificing so much time for my work. But, I have ended up to a thought that I would never change a single day out of my life. It would be lovely to get a family one day, but my life doesn't end even if that would not happen.
Enya
"No life is a waste," the Blue Man said. "The only time we waste is the time we spend thinking we are alone."
Mitch Albom
'By my lights, my son, you are a young man. [...] there should be love in your life. Am I at fault in my thinking?' 'Not at fault, Senior Brother. I loved once, and in truth I could love again. But the pain of loss was too much for me. I would rather live alone than suffer for it.' 'Then you are here to hide, Charreos, and it is not a good reason. The gift of life is too great to waste in such a fashion...'
