Famous quotes containing the words running and/or time:

    Executives are like joggers. If you stop a jogger, he goes on running on the spot. If you drag an executive away from his business, he goes on running on the spot, pawing the ground, talking business. He never stops hurtling onwards, making decisions and executing them.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

    Gabriel and radiant shrubbery as the morning grows joyful
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
