"If you want to know the value of a minute ask the person who came to the train station or airport a minute late."

"Don't equate effective living to being busy."

"We were the only two people in the entire airport who lost total track of time, for we were consumed by space-time at that present moment. Time was irrelevant to our existence, for we didn't want to exist outside the tight and glorious knots of each other's arms. Time is basically an illusion created by the mind to aid in our sense of temporal presence in the vast ocean of space. Without the neurons to create a virtual perception of the past and the future based on all our experiences, there is no actual existence of the past and the future. All that there is, is the present."

"If you refuse to deal with time today, time will deal with you tomorrow."
