A recent conversation: Dubya: Look at the clock, time is racing! Cheney: That`s the second hand, George.
- Dennis MillerMy evening visitors, if they cannot see the clock, should find the time in my face.
- Ralph Waldo EmersonEven a stopped clock is right twice a day.
- Marie von Ebner-EschenbachWe all run on two clocks. One is the outside clock, which ticks away our decades and brings us ceaselessly to the dry season. The other is the inside clock, where you are your own timekeeper and determine your own chronology, your own internal weather and your own rate of living. Sometimes the inner clock runs itself out long before the outer one, and you see a dead man going through the motions of living.
- Max LernerA watched clock never tells the time
- ProverbClocks will go as they are set, but man, irregular man, is never constant, never certain.
