“Five minutes ago it was five minutes late, and my watch is five minutes slow.”
“If I'd wanted you dead five minutes ago, you'd have died five minutes ago.”
“Sometimes what I did five minutes ago scared the fuck out of me five minutes later.”
“There was no up, there was no down. There was a steady, nauseated life five minutes ago, but nothing five minutes from now. And then, very suddenly, there was no 'now.”
“If I only had five minutes left to live, I’d only be half as alarmed as normal, because my watch is five minutes fast. And I can get a lot done in 10 minutes.”
“I did it thirty-five minutes ago.”
