“Life is wasted on the living.”

“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.”

“Why should we live with such hurry and waste of life?”

“Tomorrow will be like today. Life wastes itself whilst we are preparing to live.”

“You’re seventeen,” Magnus said. “You can’t have wasted a life you’ve barely lived.”

“The truest lengthening of life is to live while we live, wasting no time but using every hour for the highest ends. So be it this day.”

“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.”

“The best way to waste your life is by taking notes. The easiest way to avoid living is to just watch.”

“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.”

“Across my life only one word will be written: "waste" - waste of love, waste of talent, waste of enterprise.”
