“There are things that I would say that you could call an instant of time; or better, a now. As we live we seem to move through a succession of instants of time, nows, and the question is, what are they? There are where everything in the universe is at this moment, now.”
“What I fear most is power with impunity. I fear abuse of power, and the power to abuse.”
