    Time is the most important thing in human life, for what is pleasure after the departure of time? and the most consolatory, since pain, when pain has passed, is nothing.

Listen to its voice, do not waste it, but regard it as the highest finite good, in which all finite things are resolved.

    – Von Humboldt
