“They waited and watched, while the clocks seemed to resist time.”

“There is only as much space, only as much time, Only as much desire, only as many words, Only as many pages, only as much ink To accept all of us at light-speed Hurrying into the Promised Land Of oblivion that is waiting for us sooner or later.”

“Time neither flies nor sleeps. It is flexible, plastic, ever changing. Spend two hours watching a movie curled up with your lover and time ceases to exist. Spend two hours waiting for your lover to come and time is the iron bars of a prison”

“The next visit I paid to Nancy Brown was in the second week in March: for, though I had many spare minutes during the day, I seldom could look upon an hour as entirely my own; since, when everything was left to the caprices of Miss Matilda and her sister, there could be no order or regularity. Whatever occupation I chose, when not actually busied about them or their concerns, I had, as it were, to keep my loins girded, my shoes on my feet, and my staff in my hand; for not to be immediately forthcoming when called for, was regarded as a grave and inexcusable offence: not only by my pupils and their mother, but by the very servant, who came in breathless haste to call me, exclaiming ‘You’re to go to the school-room directly, mum- the young ladies is WAITING!!’ Climax of horror! actually waiting for their governess!!!”

“Time doesn’t heal all wounds, only distance can lessen the sting of them.”

“Waiting. Simply one person doing nothing, over time, while another approached.”

“Trust is not a gasoline-soaked blanket that succumbs to the matches of betrayal, never able to be used for its warmth again; it’s a tapestry that wears thin in places, but can be patched over if you have the right materials, circumstances, and patience to repair it. If you don’t, you’re always the one who feels the coldest when winter comes.”

“Time felt slower when we do nothing but wait.”

“Time was a funny and fickle thing. Sometimes there was never enough of it, and other times it stretched out endlessly.”

“For a while” is a phrase whose length can’t be measured.At least by the person who’s waiting.”

“That’s what he is—a snake, a dangerous predator—and here I am, a mouse…waiting to be devoured.Luna Ketz, Rise Above Twilight”

“waitingin a life full of little storiesfor a death to come”

“Ich werde stehen und warten.Ich werde müde werden.Ich werde nicht einschlafen.Ich werde sterben.”

“WaitingI am waiting for the special day,when you will say “i will stay”,I am waiting for the night,when you will be there and everything’s right,I am waiting for that magical rain,that will wash away the distance, sepration and pain,I am waiting for a change,when everything will get arranged,I am waiting for a meeting,when i can see you, and my heart can start beating,I am waiting for a fight,after which i can hold you in my arms tight,I am waiting for a blue moon,when we can meet and i hope it will come soon,I am waiting for the special day,when you will say “i will stay”,”
