No hand can make the clock strike for me the hours that are passed.

光陰如流水,一去不復返。

Seize the day, for fleeting youth never returns.

光陰勿虛度,青春不再來。

Those that make the best use of their time have none to spare.

充分利用時間的人不會有余暇。

What I do today is important because I am exchanging a day of my life for it.

我今天做的事情很重要, 因為我為它付了一天的代價。

Every flow has its ebb.

潮有漲落日,人有盛衰時。

tomorrow comes never

切莫依賴明天。

everything has its time and that time must be watched .

萬物皆有時,時來是不可失。

strike while the iron is hot

趁熱打鐵。

ne today is worth tow tomorrows

一個今天勝似兩個明天。

the morning sun never lasts a day

好景不長;朝陽不能光照全日。

time tames the strongest grief

時間能緩和和極度的悲痛。

time and tied wait for no man

歲月無情;歲月易逝;歲月不待人。
