It was too difficult. People weren't prepared to put in the hours on the donkey work - you know, dates and facts and so on. I think in retrospect my generation will be seen as a turning point. From now on there'll be a net loss of knowledge in Europe.

I'll tell you what's funny about it [NSA wiretapping]: They tell us we got to cut the budget; we have to have budget rollback. We're going to cut the budget on air traffic control, and every once in a while your plane is going to be delayed for three hours.

I have mummy truths to tell

Though not for sober ear,
For maybe all that hear
Should laugh and weep an hour upon the clock.

Watching him, I thought, not for the first time that night, that maybe it should have felt strange to be with him, here, now. And yet it didn’t, at all. That was one of the things about the night. Stuff that would be weird in the bright light of day just wasn’t so much once you passed a certain hour. It was like the dark just evened it all out somehow.
Sarah Dessen
There is no human bliss equal to twelve hours of work with only six hours in which to do it.
Anthony Trollope
Sorrow breaks seasons and reposing hours, Makes the night morning, and the noontide night.
William Shakespeare
