“The feeling of being hurried is not usually the result of living a full life and having no time. It is on the contrary born of a vague fear that we are wasting our life. When we do not do the one thing we ought to do, we have no time for anything elsewe are the busiest people in the world.”
—Eric Hoffer (19021983)
“At length they all to merry London came,
To merry London, my most kindly nurse,
That to me gave this lifes first native source;
Though from another place I take my name,
An house of ancient fame.”
—Edmund Spenser (1552?1599)
“It is never the thing but the version of the thing:
The fragrance of the woman not her self,
Her self in her manner not the solid block,
The day in its color not perpending time,
Time in its weather, our most sovereign lord,
The weather in words and words in sounds of sound.”
—Wallace Stevens (18791955)
