The lyrics of Pink Floyds "Time".
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but its sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in the relative way, but youre older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the english way
The time is gone, the song is over, thought Id something more to say

"Top Contributor on Yahoo! Answers", perhaps?
Sorry. Couldn't resist.
I can't recall the exact quotes right now, but Ben Franklin had some great ones -- he was a firm believer in making good use of one's time. Fortunately, his quotes are all over the place and should come up on a good Internet search.

"And I bet you don't remember half the things I'll never forget" "I wasted love for you" "You're not my favorite mistake,you are just a simple regret.I thought I knew who you were...but just watch how fast,and watch how well I forget." "It's almost like you had it planned.Like you shook my hand and said, 'I'm about to screw you over'" "Sometimes the time you waste isn't worth the lesson you learned."

"The liklihood of the toast falling jellyside down is inversely proportional to the cleanliness of the carpet."
I know it has nothing to do with folks who waste their time, but I've always loved that quote from Murphy's Law.

“If life is a waste of time and time is a waste of life, lets all get wasted and have the time of our lives.”
"A man who dares to waste one hour of life has not discovered the value of life."

"Either pee or get off the pot"...
I guess for males,it would be:"Either pee or walk away from the urinal"... and also above the urinal, there is a hand written statement from management that states;"Please do not place cigarette butts in the urinal,as it makes them soggy and hard to light"..

"A stitch in time, saves nine." Inother words, do things now rather than wait. If you do, they may get worse.
