“If you make more appointments with quality people, you will have less disappointments with non-quality people.” – Robert J. Braathe

“Goods are traded, but services are consumed and produced in the same place. And you cannot export a haircut. But we are coming close to exporting a haircut, the appointment part. What kind of haircut do you want? Which barber do you want? All those things can and will be done by a call center far away.” – Thomas L. Friedman, The World Is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-first Century

“Each minute we spend worrying about the future and regretting the past is a minute we miss in our appointment with life - a missed opportunity to engage life and to see that each moment gives us the chance to change for the better, to experience peace and joy.” – Nhat Hanh

“If you want to be more productive, then start at the start: get there on time. Whether it is a meeting, a flight, an appointment or a date, it's important to ensure you are there when you say you will be there. This may feel like an old-fashioned tip to give, but it has served me well for five decades in business.” – Richard Branson

“I have become convinced that if God stands a child before you, for even just a minute, it is a divine appointment.” – Wess Stafford

“Parents want their children to excel, callers to a victims' hotline want help, and sick people want to get well. Offering aids is like providing an alarm clock: it may help people get to an appointment on time, but no one is forcing them to use it.” – Richard Thaler

“I started, whenever I got to a city, just getting on Style Seat, which is the most incredible app for any girl who doesn't have 100 stylists at her fingertips. I can see who's well-rated and whose portfolio I like, and then book an appointment all from my phone, which made having bangs a lot easier.” – Sophia Bush

“Being on time to appointments and meetings is a phase of self-discipline and an evidence of self-respect. Punctuality is a courteous compliment the intelligent person pays to his associates.” – Marvin J. Ashton

“Not by appointment do we meet delight Or joy; they heed not our expectancy; But round some corner of the streets of life they of a sudden greet us with a smile.” – Gerald Massey

“They don't have a lot of appointment viewing. What television depends on, one thing 'Larry King Live' was - whether you liked it, didn't like it - it was appointment viewing.” – Larry King

“I look at my first appointment book from 1965 and I get dizzy. I was constantly in a phone booth calling photographers.” – Lauren Hutton

“Prayer is a specific divine appointment, an ordinance of Heaven, whereby God purposes to carry out His gracious designs on earth and to execute and make efficient the plan of salvation.” – Edward McKendree Bounds

“If I have made an appointment with you, I owe you punctuality, I have no right to throw away your time, if I do my own.” – Richard Cecil

“Change is terrifying for people who feel immune to it by virtue of status, divine appointment, or imagined irreplaceability.” – Mimi Kennedy

“The next time you find yourself racing quickly down the street, know that you're not only running to your next appointment, you are literally running from contact with your truest feelings, deepest needs and most valuable insights.” – Karen Salmansohn

“A wise woman never yields by appointment. It should always be an unforeseen happiness.” – Stendhal

“I once missed an appointment because I left my house, I locked the door. And then I thought, like anybody else, you know, 'I don't think I locked the door.' I just kept going back to the door. And I couldn't stop myself from checking and checking.” – Howie Mandel

“I can enjoy what I'm engaged in and be fully present rather than planning my answers to questions while someone else is speaking or thinking about my next appointment while my current engagement is still in progress.” – Iman
