“So what is ‘time’? If no one asks me about it, I know;
if I want to explain it to a stranger, I don’t know.”
- Augustine, Confessiones XI, 14 -
Time runs, indeed, it races – and then again it stops and the seconds pass barely perceptibly like single drops of viscous pitch. Time can be gained and time can be lost – it can be stolen, but it can also be given away. But you cannot grasp it, you cannot stop it: everything flows and the inevitability of this flow is what life is all about.
Time cannot be held, cannot be tasted, cannot be smelled, and cannot be seen. But just when it seems to stop, when the minutes turn into hours, when there seems to be no more movement but only standstill – then it can be heard: the expansive, thunderous, deafening, terrifying thunder of time.
