Time and tide await none eh? The powerful tide of time overpowers everything: kingdoms fall, evil dies, relationships change, seasons wither, and the new sun rises. I am in a really poetic mood today. Well, the concept and power of time always moves me. So, here is a collection of famous time quotes.
