Call for entry: TIME

“Nothing is of itself; everything exists of and in everything …. Everything starts and ends with time, from the beginning of life to death. Just as long in anticipation, just as short in memory. Even if time is always with us, it is always a stranger. And although there is so much of it, every moment is forever lost and irreplaceable. The loss of time is therefore both more significant and more common than any other loss we may suffer”.
(from: Anthony Grafton, Cardanos Cosmos, Berlin 1999, page 8)
