A book is still atemporal. It is you, in silence, hearing voices in your head, unfolding at a time that has nothing to do with the timescale of reading. And for the hours that we retreat into this moratorium, with the last form of private and silent human activity that isn't considered pathological, we are outside of time. Richard Powers
I think it's time for me to get out, because at the moment I'm only thinking about fishing 21 hours a day, and they're the waking moments. And even when I close my eyes I'm thinking about it. Rex Hunt
Terrible and sublime thought, that every moment is supreme for some man and woman, every hour the apotheosis of some passion! William McFee
Once I was gone for a month and I was just miserable, so I flew back from Florida for two hours just to be home and see my cats. Paula Poundstone

Charles Evans Hughes quote: "I believe in work, hard work, and long hours of work. Men do..."
I believe in work, hard work, and long hours of work. Men do not breakdown from overwork, but from worry and dissipation. Charles Evans Hughes
That's the most important thing to me - that if I'm gonna spend however long it takes to make a movie, give up 14 hours a day for however many weeks or months, then it's very important for me to know that I'm working with people who I respect and enjoy and that we're going for something together. Brad Pitt
When I have the time at home, I'll practice three or four hours a day. I have to. And I'm a late starter; I started at age 17 and at age 51 I'm still learning. Bruce Hornsby
