Quote★★★★

It’s been said that to realize the value of 1 year, you can ask a student who failed a grade. To realize the value of 1 month, ask a mother who gave birth to a premature baby. To realize the value of 1 week, ask the editor of a weekly newspaper. To realize the value of just 1 minute, ask the person who missed the train.

Arnall, Jeremy, “04 Let There Be Time” (AudioVerse teaching 45334).
