Can't rain all the time 

A phrase that is spoken in the movie The Crow. It means that even in the darkest of times light will eventually find its way through. Usually spoken in an optimistic tone of voice to shed some hope on something/someone.
It can't rain all the time..

African Time 

Similar to International Time, African Time is when one says they will arrive at a certain time, but arrive much later.

It should be noted that almost every African (on both the leaving and receiving end) does this. So, if one does actually arrive on "American time," don't be surprised if a party is still getting set up, a person is still getting ready, etc etc.
Guests arrive at an African party at 9 p.m. when the invite said 6:30.

Wedding invite says, "Note: There will be no African Time at this ceremony. It will start promptly."

You arrive at a party on time (craziness!) and half the food isn't done, the hostess is still in her cooking clothes, etc.

pumpkin time 

midnight; home time; bed time.

Reference: when the clock strikes midnight, cinderella's carriage turns into a pumpkin, so she must leave the ball and head home to sleep.
Goodness it's late, it's WAY past pumpkin time!

right person, wrong time 

When two people (presumably soulmates) are made for each other but were not able to get together due to unfortunate circumstance.
A: Wow, did you see how strong Dazai and Oda’s bond was in Bungou Stray Dogs?
B: Yeah, it sucks that they ended up acting out the right person, wrong time trope.

Make your time 

This expression is to be used when you have no chance to survive. It originated in AD 2101, when war was beginning. To successfully "Make your time", you must take off every 'Zig'. You know what you doing.
