Ask the lovers who are waiting to meet.
To realize the value of one minute:
Ask a person who has missed the train, bus or plane.
To realize the value of one second:
Ask a person who has survived an accident.
To realaize the value of one millisecond:

Time waits for no one.
Treasure every moment you have.
時(shí)間的價(jià)值
凱瑟琳·桑陳采霞譯
要想知道一年的價(jià)值，
那就去問期末考試不及格的學(xué)生。
要想知道一個(gè)月的價(jià)值，
那就去問生了早產(chǎn)兒的母親。
要想知道一周的價(jià)值，
那就去問周報(bào)的編輯。
要想知道一小時(shí)的價(jià)值，
那就去問等待見面的戀人。
要想知道一分鐘的價(jià)值，
那就去問誤了火車、汽車或者飛機(jī)的人。
要想知道一秒鐘的價(jià)值，
那就去問大難不死的人。
要想知道一毫秒的價(jià)值，
那就去問奧運(yùn)會(huì)獲得銀牌的人。
時(shí)間不等人，
你擁有的每一刻都要珍惜。
