“The ticking insideOn the inside of him there’s a wire fenceAnd past the wire fence is a dog And past the dog are thieves And past the thievesIs a gang of bad dreamsAnd past the dreamsIf you can get past the dreams Are the things that make him tick Tick, tick, tick(Page 54).”
“Just a tick past fruition sits decay.”
“The past is an old armchair in the attic, the present an ominous ticking sound, and the future is anybody’s guess. ”
“The future belongs to all who, refusing to look back at the past move ahead with the clock as it ticks.”
“Unfortunately, the clock is ticking, the hours are going by. The past increases, the future recedes. Possibilities decreasing, regrets mounting.”
“The night that seemed endless hours before is now slipping through your fingers, ticking by as it falls into the past and pushes you towards the future.”
