“There are eyes observing the unsuspecting stranger in the most apparently deserted places.”
"Alternational time is a time of the present which tends to produce a mute past and an irrelevant future. This is the time of the relation between seasons, between the genders, between day and night, the sun and the moon, life and death.”
“ ... the constant use of watches, diaries, timetables and calendars – all these are means to ablolish the diversity of time.”
