Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time.
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines.
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way.
The time is gone, the song is over, thought I’d something more to say…
Time, Pink Floyd
All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms.
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm.
Feel the Silence, Depeche Mode
To be is to do – Socrates
To do is to be – Sartre
Do Be Do Be Do – Sinatra (Strangers in the Night)
Kurt Vonnegut
Happy birthday Simon.
Just one note. There is a typo in your quote from Pink Floyd’s Time: “the time is gone […]”.
Thanks Bruno, well spotted and now corrected.
