To me, every day of life is a good day. Of course there are people & situations thrown on your path, only as a test. Whether a test of your faith or a test of how you'll handle it. Oh yes, there are times when I want to let some of these dummies have it, but I prefer to spend my energy on praising God for all He is & all He does. I prefer to love & express compassion to others & live a happy life. This life is precious. This borrowed time isn't promised with a specific measure. Don't worry about what negative people think or feel about you. I'm sure they have numerous things to work on themselves. Just live. Put God first, live & be happy. If no one has told you they love you, remember Jesus loves you (and I do too) LK ~ LaNina King
Borrowed Time quotes by LaNina King
And here I am on my borrowed time. ~ Piyush Rohankar
Borrowed Time quotes by Piyush Rohankar
And what we've been always been is ... ?"
"Is living on borrowed time. Never caring about who's paying for it, who's starving somewhere else all jammed together so we can have cheap food, a house, a yard in the burbs ... planetwide, more every day, the payback keeps gathering. And meantime the only help we get from the media is boo hoo the innocent dead. Boo fuckin hoo. You know what? All the dead are innocent. There's no uninnocent dead."
After a while, "You're not going to explain that, or ... "
"Course not, it's a koan. ~ Thomas Pynchon
Borrowed Time quotes by Thomas Pynchon
He walked out in the gray light and stood and he saw for a brief moment the absolute truth of the world. The cold relentless circling of the intestate earth. Darkness implacable. The blind dogs of the sun in their running. The crushing black vacuum of the universe. And somewhere two hunted animals trembling like ground-foxes in their cover. Borrowed time and borrowed world and borrowed eyes with which to sorrow it. ~ Cormac McCarthy
Borrowed Time quotes by Cormac McCarthy
We are living in an age of grace, in which God promises that "whosoever will" may come and receive His Son. But this period of grace will not go on indefinitely. We are even now living on borrowed time. ~ Billy Graham
Borrowed Time quotes by Billy Graham
I have enjoyed greatly the second blooming ... suddenly you find - at the age of 50, say - that a whole new life has opened before you. ~ Agatha Christie
Borrowed Time quotes by Agatha Christie
I've lived on borrowed time. More than any man deserves. I've seen wonders beyond my wildest imaginings. Through these centuries, against the impossibility that we'd find each other, we did. And I am most grateful for it. ~ Sleepy Hollow Press
Borrowed Time quotes by Sleepy Hollow Press
I suddenly realized that we were on borrowed time, that time is always borrowed, and that the lending agency exacts its premium precisely when we are least prepared to pay and need to borrow more ... ~ Andre Aciman
Borrowed Time quotes by Andre Aciman
We are surviving, in this pleasant liberal enclave where people read and speak freely, on borrowed time. But for those not inside - the dispossessed of the world, the poor, the refugees and those forced into exile - existence is wasteland. ~ Hanif Kureishi
Borrowed Time quotes by Hanif Kureishi
It was like hitting the snooze button on your alarm - your sleep in that window is never very good, since you know it's borrowed time, and that it will be over all too soon. ~ Morgan Matson
Borrowed Time quotes by Morgan Matson
Productiveness is your acceptance of morality, your recognition of the fact that you choose to live--that productive work is the process by which man's consciousness controls his existence, a constant process of acquiring knowledge and shaping matter to fit one's purpose, of translating an idea into physical form, of remaking the earth in the image of one's values--that all work is creative work if done by a thinking mind, and no work is creative if done by a blank who repeats in uncritical stupor a routine he has learned from others--that your work is yours to choose, and the choice is as wide as your mind, that nothing more is possible to you and nothing less is human--that to cheat your way into a job bigger than your mind can handle is to become a fear-corroded ape on borrowed motions and borrowed time, and to settle down into a job that requires less than your mind's full capacity is to cut your motor and sentence yourself to another kind of motion: decay--that your work is the process of achieving your values, and to lose your ambition for values is to lose your ambition to live--that your body is a machine, but your mind is its driver, and you must drive as far as your mind will take you, with achievement as the goal of your road--that the man who has no purpose is a machine that coasts downhill at the mercy of any boulder to crash in the first chance ditch, that the man who stifles his mind is a stalled machine slowly going to rust, that the man who lets a leader pres ~ Ayn Rand
Borrowed Time quotes by Ayn Rand
When you walk this earth on borrowed time, each day on the calendar is a beloved friend you know for only a short time. ~ Judith Hooper
Borrowed Time quotes by Judith Hooper
Only see you when I close my eyes. We on borrowed time when I delayed the sunlight. ~ Bobby V
Borrowed Time quotes by Bobby V
You'll survive, mu Tara. We'll make sure of it. (Nykyrian)
You can't guarantee that. You said it yourself. Even you're living on borrowed time, waiting for one of them to kill you. (Kiara)
And you said I was scaring her? Damn, bud. You're socially awkward to the extreme. (Syn) ~ Sherrilyn Kenyon
Borrowed Time quotes by Sherrilyn Kenyon
The world was already a miserable place in the spring of that cursed year. The New Depression was at its height. Stocks fell, jobs were lost, and consumer consumption fell in a corporate death spiral as the aging technoczars were revealed to have feet of clay. Financial institutions underreacted, the government overreacted, and a society living on borrowed time paid for with borrowed dollars failed. Hard times and hunger came to the Western world, which was all the more of a shock because the generation that survived the last financial collapse had virtually died out. ~ E.E. Knight
Borrowed Time quotes by E.E. Knight
He always had the sense that they were on borrowed time. ~ Nicholas Sparks
Borrowed Time quotes by Nicholas Sparks
The second we put a bullet in the head of one of those undead monsters
the moment one of us drove a hammer into one of their faces
or cut a head off. We became what we are! And that's just it. THAT's what it comes down to. You people don't know what we are.
We're surrounded by the DEAD. We're among them
and when we finally give up we become them! We're living on borrowed time here. Every minute of our life is a minute we steal from them! You see them out there. You KNOW that when we die
we become them. You think we hide behind walls to protect us from the walking dead?
Don't you get it? We ARE the walking dead! WE are the walking dead. ~ Robert Kirkman
Borrowed Time quotes by Robert Kirkman
I want to live like there's no tomorrow. Love like I'm on borrowed time. It's good to be alive. ~ Jason Gray
Borrowed Time quotes by Jason Gray
I am the representative of all the sick people and what they are doing to me is only the worst case right now, but there will be others. I am living on borrowed time anyway. I owe this part of my life to luck and modern medical science. But I can't imagine what the rest of it will be like if they won't let me use medical marijuana. ~ Peter McWilliams
Borrowed Time quotes by Peter McWilliams
Did Cinderella ever consider fessing up to the prince, that night she was enjoying herself in the fancy ball gown? Did she even think of telling him, oh, by the way, Prince, the coach isn't mine, I'm really a filthy little barefoot servant on borrowed time? No. She took her moment. And then went quietly away after midnight. ~ Lissa Price
Borrowed Time quotes by Lissa Price
I live now on borrowed time, waiting in the anteroom for the summons that will inevitably come. And then - I go on to the next thing, whatever it is. One doesn't, luckily, have to bother about that. ~ Agatha Christie
Borrowed Time quotes by Agatha Christie
And what we've always been is. . .?"

"Is living on borrowed time. Getting away cheap. Never caring about who's paying for it, who's starving somewhere else all jammed together so we can have cheap food, a house, a yard in the burbs. . .planetwide, more every day, the payback keeps gathering... ~ Thomas Pynchon
Borrowed Time quotes by Thomas Pynchon
But I was - not quite happy. Pending happy. I knew this was not really my life; it was a borrowed life. One that I was temporarily wearing until I could sort out my own. ~ Maggie Stiefvater
Borrowed Time quotes by Maggie Stiefvater
I find it kind of funny. I find it kind of sad. The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had. ~ Tears For Fears
Borrowed Time quotes by Tears For Fears
It was borrowed time anyway - the whole upper tenth of a nation living with the insouciance of a grand duc and the casualness of chorus girls. ~ Howard Zinn
Borrowed Time quotes by Howard Zinn
I generally find,' Clent murmured after a pause, 'that it is best to treat borrowed time the same way as borrowed money. Spend it with panache, and try to be somewhere else when it runs out.'
'And when we get found, Mr. Clent, when the creditors and bailiffs come after us and it's payment time ... '
' ... then we borrow more, madam, at a higher interest. We embark on a wilder gamble, make a bigger promise, tell a braver story, devise a more intricate lie, sell the hides of imaginary dragons to desperate men, climb to even higher and more precarious ground ... and later, of course, our fall and catastrophe will be all the worse, but later will be our watchword, Mosca. We have nothing else - but we can at least make later later. ~ Frances Hardinge
Borrowed Time quotes by Frances Hardinge
I never trust anyone", Alecto told Mandy as wisps of smoke drifted from his cigarette. "Treachery is the unfortunate result of any friendships I've ever had. I don't need friends anyway, what I want is to be left alone to carry out my work ... it's a dangerous world and we're just on borrowed time, all of us ... even you. ~ Rebecca McNutt
Borrowed Time quotes by Rebecca McNutt
Never let them see your fear ... it's rule number one. And it's not that I'm afraid. No, I'm not.
I don't fear death.
I've already died too many times before.
I'm a cat with nine lives and I'm already on number twelve. I'm living on borrowed time. When death wants to take me, it'll take me. ~ J.M. Darhower
Borrowed Time quotes by J.M. Darhower
Borrowed time and borrowed world and borrowed eyes with which to sorrow it. At ~ Cormac McCarthy
Borrowed Time quotes by Cormac McCarthy
And tell Rowan," Aelin said, fighting her own sob, "that I'm sorry I lied. But tell him it was all borrowed time anyway. Even before today, I knew it was all just borrowed time, but I still wish we'd had more of it." She fought past her trembling mouth. "Tell him he has to fight. He must save Terrasen, and remember the vows he made to me. And tell him . . . tell him thank you - for walking that dark path with me back to the light. ~ Sarah J. Maas
Borrowed Time quotes by Sarah J. Maas
Better to live your life open rather than exist on borrowed time, waiting for the great unmasking. ~ Kate Jacobs
Borrowed Time quotes by Kate Jacobs
Some argue that in time there was a noticeable change in Ratzinger's position held during the Council. However, as he himself said, and others would say about him, "It is not Ratzinger who has somehow changed and suddenly become reactionary and conservative. It is the secular culture that has drifted beyond the pale. ~ Gediminas T. Jankunas
Borrowed Time quotes by Gediminas T. Jankunas
Don't spend your energy and time worrying about where you're going after this life. You'll only end up missing out on this life. Then what's the point? ~ Dennis M. Dupuis
Borrowed Time quotes by Dennis M. Dupuis
Each one is different. Each project is different. Some are silly, some are not. Some are more realistic, some are not. Some are overly dramatic, some are not. You've just got to try and find the thing that's most engaging and entertaining in whatever way, shape or form, and it's different every time. ~ Colin Hanks
Borrowed Time quotes by Colin Hanks
In heaven I'll wish with all my heart that I could reclaim a thousandth part of the time I've let slip through my fingers, that I could call back those countless conversations which could have glorified my Lord - but didn't. ~ Billy Graham
Borrowed Time quotes by Billy Graham
Time consecrates; and what is gray with age becomes religion. ~ Friedrich Schiller
Borrowed Time quotes by Friedrich Schiller
I was warned not to do it. Actors who play Jesus are supposed to have a hard time getting other roles to follow, but I felt this was a myth. After all, how can you be typecast as Christ? ~ Jeffrey Hunter
Borrowed Time quotes by Jeffrey Hunter
I am somewhat proud of this," Mab's cold voice said. "To be sure, the White Christ never suffered so long or so terribly as did this traitor. Three days on a tree. Hardly enough time for a prelude. When it came to visiting agony, the Romans were hobbyists. ~ Jim Butcher
Borrowed Time quotes by Jim Butcher
Time was a film run backward. Suns fled and ten million moons fled after them. ~ Ray Bradbury
Borrowed Time quotes by Ray Bradbury
Love is circumstantial; we can love anyone if need be; and losing the one we love is the singular catastrophe. Time does not heal it. Every present moment yearns for even the roughest past. ~ Andrew Solomon
Borrowed Time quotes by Andrew Solomon
If you can play the first ten or fifteen moves in just as many minutes, you can be in a state of bliss for the rest of the game. If, on the other hand, Bronstein thinks for forty minutes about his first move, then time trouble is inevitable. ~ Alexander Kotov
Borrowed Time quotes by Alexander Kotov
My great-grandmother raised nine children to adulthood in a world without supermarkets, refrigerators, or washing machines. She did not have much time to search for "unconditional love" or "commitment," because she was too busy practicing it herself. Most of her life was taken up with the unceasing procurement and preparation of food for her husband and children. Yet she got along fine without romance novels, child custody gamesmanship, or psychotherapy; she was, I am told, always cheerful and contented. This is something beyond the imagination of barren, resentful feminists. It is the satisfaction which results from knowing that one is carrying out a worthwhile task to the best of one's abilities, a satisfaction nothing else in life can give. We are here today because this is the way women used to behave; we cannot continue long under the present system of rotating polyandry. ~ F. Roger Devlin
Borrowed Time quotes by F. Roger Devlin
And if I sit in that room at the top of the house and I think about my life and if I shut my eyes from time to time and imagine being warm in the summer and I hear the bees buzzing and for a moment I truly am Alice in Wonderland, do you have the heart to tell me I am not? ~ John Logan
Borrowed Time quotes by John Logan
No matter how difficult life is, never give up. Be happy and keep your head up with joy and smiles. One day your time will come. ~ Auliq Ice
Borrowed Time quotes by Auliq Ice
It's my special magical power. I can read your mind when you're thinking dirty thoughts."
"So, ninety-five percent of the time."
She craned her head back to look up at him. "Ninety-five percent? What's the other five percent?"
"Oh, you know, the usual
demons I might kill, runes I need to learn, people who've annoyed me recently, people who've annoyed me not so recently, ducks."
"Ducks? ~ Cassandra Clare
Borrowed Time quotes by Cassandra Clare
From the time I entered the industry, I have always been clear about certain things - no short clothes, no kissing, no bikinis. Nobody comes to me with such roles. And I have no dearth of work. ~ Sonakshi Sinha
Borrowed Time quotes by Sonakshi Sinha
I squirmed uncomfortable at the thought of the spokes-girl for Time of Your Life teen tampons suggesting more blood in advertising. ~ Rae Mariz
Borrowed Time quotes by Rae Mariz
Orderliness readily slides to conformity over time. ~ Lionel Shriver
Borrowed Time quotes by Lionel Shriver
My advice would be to write-never to stop writing, to keep it up all the time, to be painstaking about it, to write until you begin to write. ~ Gabriel Fielding
Borrowed Time quotes by Gabriel Fielding
Stop living a day at a time and stop worrying about age. ~ Helen Reddy
Borrowed Time quotes by Helen Reddy
My thinking was taught to tribes in South Africa like the Zulus and Xhosas. At the time there were about 210 fights breaking out among them every month, but after they listened to my lessons, this fell to just four. ~ Edward De Bono
Borrowed Time quotes by Edward De Bono
Health is the thing that makes you feel that now is the best time of the year. ~ Franklin Pierce Adams
Borrowed Time quotes by Franklin Pierce Adams
Just be who you truly are Gabriel, And give it time. ~ G.L. Breedon
Borrowed Time quotes by G.L. Breedon
The man who counts his blessings will not have time to count his enemies. ~ Rev William Still
Borrowed Time quotes by Rev William Still
And they beat. The women for having known them and no more, no more; the children for having been them but never again. They killed a boss so often and so completely they had to bring him back to life to pulp him one more time. Tasting hot mealcake among pine trees, they beat it away. Singing love songs to Mr. Death, they smashed his head. More than the rest, they killed the flirt whom folks called Life for leading them on. ~ Toni Morrison
Borrowed Time quotes by Toni Morrison
... Magic is often a tricky thing. Often it is explainable. People fly through the air in planes and live underwater in submarines. Plants grow within weeks and cities operate and sustain millions of people. A person can talk to practically anyone almost anywhere around the world instantly. People's images are transported by photo in the time it takes to press a button. Dinosaurs seem real, huge apes exist, and other worlds are a movie ticket away. ~ Obert Skye
Borrowed Time quotes by Obert Skye
At the time, Alcatraz had been taken over by Native Americans who were protesting against a long series of broken treaties, genocidal policies, and racist exploitation. ~ Assata Shakur
Borrowed Time quotes by Assata Shakur
These days, the teenage years are considered a time for socializing with a focus on dating and popularity. When relieved of the pressures of dating too young, I believe a young person is better able to focus on who they really are and find themselves in that crucial time when your personality is beginning to germinate. It's all that time reading, dreaming, and goofing off with fellow oddballs where our best selves get to evolve as teenagers. ~ Rainn Wilson
Borrowed Time quotes by Rainn Wilson
Newspapers with declining circulations can complain all they want about their readers and even say they have no taste. But you will still go out of business over time. A newspaper is not a public trust - it has a business model that either works or it doesn't. ~ Marc Andreessen
Borrowed Time quotes by Marc Andreessen
I can always track my career by the children - I started writing right after the 14-year-old was born, and sold my first book just in time to pay for the birth of the 12-year-old. ~ Heather Graham Pozzessere
Borrowed Time quotes by Heather Graham Pozzessere
She does not get eaten by the sharks at this time," my father said. I looked up at him. "What?" "You looked like you were getting too involved and bothered so I thought I would let you relax. ~ William Goldman
