Quote by Robert A. Cook

We dribble away our life, little by little, in small packages -- we don't throw it away all at once.

We dribble away our life, little by little, in small package

Summary

This quote suggests that people often waste their life by wasting small amounts of time rather than in one big act. It implies that the gradual and continuous squandering of life is more common than one major event of wasting it completely. The quote serves as a reminder to value and make the most of every fleeting moment, as life can easily slip away unnoticed if we are not mindful of how we spend our time.
