Timekeeping quote from Mitch Albom – thanks to @GnarlyGoat: “Try to imagine a life without timekeeping. You probably can’t. You know the month, the year, the day of the week. There is a clock on your wall or the dashboard of your car. You have a schedule, a calendar, a time for dinner or a movie. Yet all around you, timekeeping is ignored. Birds are not late. A dog does not check its watch. Deer do not fret over passing birthdays. an alone measures time. Man alone chimes the hour. And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralyzing fear that no other creature endures. A fear of time running out.”

And from Michael Easter with Thanks to Major Payne: “Perhaps when we recognize that death is a reality we must all face, we may then realize that life is not only a pleasure but a kind of eccentric privilege.”
