“To live intensely is a basic human necessity.”
“You see, the lives of servants are not lived by clocks, but by the ringing of their masters' bells.”
“We live in an age when unnecessary things are our only necessities.”
“The clock is impotent; mechanical time does not affect those living in an eternal present.”
“They hurt each other without wanting to, just because each represented to the others the cruel and demanding necessity of their lives.”
