  13. Time is a very strange thing.
    So long as one takes it for granted, it is nothing at all.

    In my sleep it is there flowing.
    And between me and you,
    There too, it flows soundless like an hour-glass.

When do I restore myself by relaxing my mind from its preoccupations?
    (St. Augustine : Confessions)
