Very Long Time Quotes
My name is growing all the time, and I’ve lived a very long, long time; so my name is like a story. Real names tell you the story of the things they belong to in my language, in the Old Entish as you might say. It is a lovely language, but it takes a very long time to say anything in it, because we do not say anything in it, unless it is worth taking a long time to say, and to listen to.
J. R. R. Tolkien

Agatha Christie

No matter how fast I ran, I couldn't catch up to him; no matter how loud I called, he never turned.
