Poetry, prose, and quotes often have different meanings or interpretations based on the reader’s life experiences. Below, I have offered my initial inference of what the words above mean to me. Please feel free to leave yours in the comments section so that other readers might realize a more diverse interpretation. (The context in which the words may have been originally presented, and by whom, are not the primary issues, just what the words might mean to us, or for us, individually, in the now.)

My interpretation of this quote: Time is a resource that we all possess, yet is often squandered. Those who prudently make use of their time will be surprised and pleased with the extent of their accomplishments.
What’s yours? (post in comments section below)

“Obstacles are like wild animals. They are cowards, but they will bluff you if they can. If they see you are afraid of them, they are liable to spring upon you. But if you look them squarely in the eye, they will slink out of sight.”

“The hour is a terribly seductive devil. Each attempts to seduce us into searching for ways to avoid its duties. It continues by seducing us into believing that we have a never-ending supply and therefore should claim 60 minutes of refrain right now. Daily, 24 of them attempt to steal our future …and far too many succeed.”
—Paul Mark Sutherland
