― Virginia Woolf, Mrs. Dalloway

“When people are enjoying a film they say "I didn’t see the time go by"… but I think that when time flies and you don’t see time passing by you are robbed of an hour and a half or two hours of your life.

― Chantal Akerman

“time passes:

takes to turn the page now child now adult
now old man, rain-swept and serene”
― Lesley Harrison, Kitchen Music
