Wasting Quotes

Questioning what really counts as wasted, from time to resources.

These wasting quotes push back on the easy assumption that spending time or money automatically means losing it, arguing that time enjoyed while 'wasted' was never wasted at all. Others turn the word toward economics, pointing at poor countries mismanaging their own resources. See Regret quotes for the feeling that often follows real waste.
