"It is not that we have a short space of time, but that we waste much of it. Life is long enough"

De Brevitate Vitae is a moral essay written by Seneca the Younger, in which the philosopher brings up many Stoic principles on the nature of time, namely that people waste much of it in meaningless pursuits.
