  1. I think "Time waits for no one" means that you can't stop time. So that quote is like a saying that sinse you can't stop it, it won't wait for you. And time is impossible to stop so it waits for no one.

  2. I think "Time waits for no one" means that if you're late catching the train, the train won't wait for you to come. The train has a schedule to keep. You can't show up late and expect the train to be waiting right there for you. Same with school, if you're late for school, school can't wait for you. So I think
    "Time waits for no one" means you can't show up late for something then expect it to wait for you because, time waits for no one.

  3. I think the meaning of the quote, "Time waits for no one" means that if you are in a hurry to get somewhere, time doesn't just stop. You still have to hurry up as best you could to get to wherever you want to be. And if your late to go to the movies, the movie will still start without you. In other words, time doesn't wait for you. Time will always keep moving no matter what.

  4. I think the quote, "Time waits for no one" means that, like you have an assignment do tomorrow, but you still have to do alot of things to finish it. I think it also means that you hurry/rush to finish,get to somewhere in time. It means to try to get to your destination on time. No matter how fast your moving, time will be ticing. It's like the saying "Time Flies".

  5. I think the the quote means that it is not possible to stop time. For example, if you were late to work, time isn't just going to stop for you. If you have homework due go as fast as you can and see if you can get it done. If you're dreading turning a certain age (like when my mom turned 30), there is nothing you can do to stop it! So if you think you can, go ahead and try to stop time (it's not going to happen).

  6. I think the quote "Time waits for no one" means that it's impossible to stop time. For example, if you were going to the grocery store before it closed,time wouldn't stop for you to get there before it closes and stall everyone else in the world. A store opens and closes at a certain time, and it has to stay on it's schedule. It also means if you are late for a plane the plane won't wait for you, it will just leave you behind. As I said there is no way you can stop time!

  7. I think the saying is Time waits for no one mean that you can't stop time so it won't wait for you. Also that means that it is impossible to stop time so don't rely on the time because it won't wait for you and it won't stop for you. Just think if you were supposed to go to a concert and you had to be there at a certain time and you are running late the time won't stop for you and it won't wait for you!

  8. I think the quote "Time waits for no one" means that it's impossible to stop time. For example, when you are running that for a practice or party time won't stop so you can get to them and stop everyone else in the world. Also like if the plane that you are supposed to catch is just about to take off and move from the gate time won't stop so you can make it to the plane on time. So like I said you are going to never going to stop time but if you don't beleive me go ahead and try it yourself see what will happen but like I said it will never work. :)

  9. I think that the quote "Time waits for no one" means that time never stops even for the slightest second. I also think that it means that you have to use time wisely because it's not possible to stop it. It is a little like saying that there aren't enough hours in a day. For example, if you're late for work or school they won't just wait for you to arrive. They will go right ahead as scheduled. As you can see, "Time stops for no one" is a great way of saying time never stops.

  11. I think it means like thinking. Like stop and think carefully about something. Or time stops and you have all the time in the world to think about something carefully. I think to me that is what Meaning of Time means to me.

  12. I think the quote ‘time waits for no one’ means that time will not wait for you even if you want it to. I agree with Courtney and Lauren about what they think. The quote also means that you should use your time wisely and don’t try to stop it because you can’t. For example, if you have a lot of homework that will take you a while to finish, plan your time or you won’t be able to turn it in on time.

  13. I think that the quote "Time waits for no one" means that time will never stop even for the shortest amount of time. The qoute is saying that it wont stop and it never will even for the most important person or thing. Just like if you were trying to catch a plane and it is about to take off, then time would not stop so that you could get on the plane. Or if you had to go to a party and you are about to be late, time would not stop for you.

  14. I think that saying was made up for all the time that passes. And another reason is you don't even know it! The first time you look at the clock it is 10:00 and then the next time you look it's 10:30! The main definition would be that time never stops, it just keeps going. You may not be ready but time keeps going

  15. I think the saying time stops for no one means like if you really mess up it wont jut stop and rewind for you. I know ive had those times before. Also it could mean like if your having fun you might want time to stop. I once had a really fun party and wanted time to stop but of course it wont. Those are just some ideas I had that for that saying.

  17. I think the saying time waits for no one means if you're late for a plane they won't wait for you. Don't just take your sweet time when you have to go on a train or something. You can't stop time when you need to get something done either. No matter how hard you try you can't stop time. Time moves on even if you break a clock. So think before you act because you can't go back in time.

Since time doesn't wait for you, then you need to make good choices and be smart how you spend your time.If you're late for something you can't go back and change that moment.

  22. I think the quote "Time waits for no one" means you can't stop time. I also think it means when you have something to attend you shouldn't be late and you shouldn't take your time to go somewhere. In addition, he is preobably trying to tell someone it's not polite to be late to something you commited to. It also could mean that time can't randomly be slower or faster. Every minute is 60 seconds! So, that's what I think it means and remember don't be late! :P
