&ldquo;Try to imagine a life without timekeeping. You probably can&rsquo;t. You know the month, the year, the day of the week. There is a clock on your wall or the dashboard of your car.

Man alone measures time. Man alone chimes the hour. And, because of this, man alone suffers a paralyzing fear that no other creature endures. A fear of time running out.&rdquo;<br /> ― Mitch Albom, The Time Keeper
