That's what people are talking about.
Bill GatesRead

Ernest HolmesRead
[Speaking] is never without fear; of visibility, of the harsh light of scrutiny and perhaps judgment, of pain, of death. But we have lived through all of those already, in silence, except death.

The main problem with this great obsession for saving time is very simple: you can't save time. You can only spend it wisely or foolishly.
