My charge to you and to anyone else who desire greatness is that you should not trivialize time.

In the nearest future, those who understood the value of time will rule over those who trivialized time.

Running keeps me at a physical peak and sharpens my senses. It makes me touch and see and hear as if for the first time. Through it I get through the first barrier to true emotions, the lack of integration with the body. Into it I escape from the pettiness and triviality of everyday life. And, once inside,stop the daily pendulum perpetually oscillating between distraction and boredom...It is the swing from boredom to anxiety, from depression to worry, that exhausts and defeats us. The sure knowledge that we can be much more than we are frustrates us.

Triviality is evil - triviality, that is, in the form of consciousness and mind that adapts itself to the world as it is, that obeys the principle of inertia. And this principle of inertia truly is what is radically evil.

What dire offence from am'rous causes springs,What mighty contests rise from trivial things,...

Trifles make perfection, and perfection is no trifle.

Because, as we all know, it’s easier to do trivial things that are urgent than it is to do important things that are not urgent, like thinking. And it’s also easier to do little things we know we can do than to start on big things that we’re not so sure about.

I believe that the mind can be permanently profaned by the habit of attending to trivial things.

Science is an organized pursuit of triviality.Art is a casual pursuit of significance.Let's keep it in perspective.

I know so much pressure is on all of us to waste time and to just trivialize it. There is so much pressure on us to try to overcome boredom by spending time on frivolities.
