Time and tide waits for no man.
The origin is uncertain, although it's clear that the phrase is ancient and that it predates modern English. The earliest known record is from St. Marher, 1225:

"And te tide and te time þat tu iboren were, schal beon iblescet."

A version in modern English - "the tide abides for, tarrieth for no man, stays no man, tide nor time tarrieth no man" evolved into the present day version.

And honestly, time passes like bullet trains, so fast you can't board it, even when the voice from the intercomm says its 'stopping'.
