“Sometime in your life you will have occasion to say ‘What is this thing called time?’ You know, what is that, the clock? You go to work by the clock, you get your martini in the afternoon by the clock, and you have your coffee by the clock, and have to get on a plane at a certain time and arrive. It goes on and on and on, and time is a dictator as we know it.”
—Nina Simone
