I was reading an article in the 'New York Times;' it talked about being in the zone, and being in the zone you're so focused that time ceases to exist. It's when you think, 'Oh, I've been doing this for five hours and didn't even know it.' It's the difference between hard work and going, '12 o'clock, not moving.'

'Bum's Rush' is a piece about timing, and everything that's in the piece needs to be with the piece. If people are missing, or marking, or unable to use their voices, the impulses that prompt the action are lost, and its logic crumbles.

When I have a job to do, time means nothing. I lose patience with people who work on a clock.

People are impatient. They want things to happen overnight, and have no idea of the circumstances and situations that can surround an individual at times.

I like to take my own time, and I don't like to rush. I do take time, and I have patience.

Everyone has an hour in their day to go and do something for somebody else; I don't care how busy they are.

When running to fill a time quota, however, the reverse happens. You can't make that time pass any faster by rushing, so you settle into a pace that feels right to you at the moment. Each minute above a quota is a little victory.

I don't understand why, in entertainment, the hours are as long as they are. It seems like everything takes forever, and no one can tell you why exactly.
