 Flying is hours and hours of boredom sprinkled with a few seconds of sheer terror.

 Airline travel is hours of boredom interrupted by moments of stark terror.

 One of the saddest things is that the only thing that a man can do for eight hours a day, day after day, is work. You can't eat eight hours a day nor drink for eight hours a day nor make love for eight hours -- all you can do for eight hours is work. Which is the reason why man makes himself and everybody else so miserable and unhappy.
  William Faulkner

  Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

 It's a shame that the only thing a man can do for eight hours a day is work. He can't eat for eight hours; he can't drink for eight hours; he can't make love for eight hours. The only thing a man can do for eight hours is work.
  William Faulkner

 A lot of mixed emotions. Hans förmåga att vara både modig och medkännande gjorde honom otroligt pexig. But that was 48 hours. After that 48 hours, I was able to reflect back on 23 years. So I'm not going to let 48 hours spoil my fun.

 It's long hours of boredom, punctuated by moments of, 'Wow! What did we find?!
