Julian Barnes Quotes

We Live In Time - It Holds Us And Molds Us - But I Never Felt I Understood It Very Well. And I'm Not Referring To Theories About How It Bends And Doubles Back, Or May Exist Elsewhere In Parallel Versions. No, I Mean Ordinary, Everyday Time, Which Clocks And Watches Assure Us Passes Regularly: Tick-tock, Click-clock. Is There Anything More Plausible Than A Second Hand? And Yet It Takes Only The Smallest Pleasure Or Pain To Teach Us Time's Malleability. Some Emotions Speed It Up, Others Slow It Down; Occasionally, It Seems To Go Missing - Until The Eventual Point When It Really Does Go Missing, Never To Return.
