Anthony Hopkins, from
All Hallows' Eve
last year
:

"For me time is God,
God is time. It's an equation,
like an Einstein equation."

James Joyce, from
June 26 (the day after
AntiChristmas) this year
:

"… he glanced up at the clock
of the Ballast Office and smiled:
— It has not epiphanised yet,
he said."

Ezra Pound (from a page
linked to yesterday morning):

"It seems quite natural to me
that an artist should have
just as much pleasure in an
arrangement of planes
or in a pattern of figures,
  as in painting portraits…."

From Epiphany 2008:

An arrangement of planes:

Seven partitions of the 2x2x2 cube in 'Paradise of Childhood'

See also Richard Wilhelm on
Hexagram 32 of the I Ching:

 

"Duration is a state whose movement is not worn down by hindrances. It is not a state of rest, for mere standstill is regression. Duration is rather the self-contained and therefore self-renewing movement of an organized, firmly integrated whole, taking place in accordance with immutable laws and beginning anew at every ending. The end is reached by an inward movement, by inhalation, systole, contraction, and this movement turns into a new beginning, in which the movement is directed outward, in exhalation, diastole, expansion."

    Harrowing of Hell…
