Terry Pratchett (1948-)

The little, meagre, shrivelled, hopping, though loud and troublesome insects of the hour.

Edmund Burke (1729-1797)

I can't remember a game called because of lights. It just wouldn't have been right to have those guys sitting around for 40 minutes, 50 minutes, an hour.

Bruce Burrow

You get a complete workout in 30 minutes. At the YMCA or the Wellness Center I have to lift weights and then run after. It takes an hour or an hour and a half, and I just don't have the time for that.
