Time and tide will wait for no man, saith the adage. But all men have to wait for time and tide.

Charles Dickens

Time and tide wait for no man. A pompous and self-satisfied proverb, and was true for a billion years; but in our day of electric wires and water-ballast we turn it around: Man waits not for time nor tide.

Mark Twain

Time and tide wait for no man.

Geoffrey Chaucer

Time and tide and hookers wait for no man.

Rodney Dangerfield

As we say in the sewer, time and tide wait for no man.

Edward Norton

Gay marriage will be universally accepted in time. But if I may be so bold as to say to gays and lesbians, don't wait for that time to arrive. Just as my father and his generation did not 'wait' for their civil rights, nor should you. The toothpaste ain't going back in the tube. The tide has turned.

John Ridley

You know there are moments such as these when time stands still and all you do is hold your breath and hope it will wait for you.

Dorothea Lange

There are times when I still feel like an actual toddler in a grown-up - well, semi-grown-up - body. But other times I can't wait to actually be 30, just so I can say things like, "I'm 30. I don't have time for that. F - k off!"

Anna Kendrick

There's still this idea that women are over by the time they are 40, so that they can't play the love interest opposite a 50-year-old man. George Clooney is 52, but he's always on the arm of a thirt-something actress. He gets Vera Farmiga. You don't get a 50-year-old woman on the arm of a 30-year-old guy.

Trudie Styler

The married woman as family provider beside the man, often also in place of the man, but always however subservient to the man's dominion - this is the worst form of woman slavery our time has created.

Ellen Key

No one can tell time except approximately, time never stands still to be named.

Fredric Brown

Such an experiment without actual conditions of war to support it is a foolish waste of time. . . . I once saw a man kill a lion with a 30-30 caliber rifle under certain conditions, but that doesn't mean that a 30-30 rifle is a lion gun.

Theodore Roosevelt

A man who brags about satisfying 30 women is immature. A real man is one who can satisfy the same woman for 30 years.

Tony Evans

No man who respects his mother or loves his sister, can speak disparagingly of any woman; however low she may seem to have sunk, she is still a woman. I want every man to remember this. Every woman is, or, at some time, has been a sister or daughter.

Victoria Woodhull

In moments of transcendence, when time stands still, your biological clock will stop. The spirit is that domain of our awareness where there is no time.
