ECHOES: OF TIME AND SPACE

It's been a while since I've done an "Echoes". It was while watching "George Carlin Again!", shown in tribute to the late comic on HBO2, that I got the idea for this one. In his stand-up act, Carlin talked about all the various phrases we have for the passage of Time - "In a sec", "sooner or later", "any time now", "just a minute", "when the cows come home", "in a while"......
"'Now' seems so soon."
Alix Garrett
'Joey'

"What's Time? Who can define it?"
Mona Roberts
'Burke's Law'

"
Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow....
Who knows how much separates one from the other
Or if they can be separated
...."
Gavin
'Logan's Run'

"
Time! What is Time?
A corporeal measurement of Time and Space: a human boundary
."
'Murphy Brown'

"It's been well-documented that Time is not a fixed construct."
Dr. Gregory House
'House'

"Some things are deeper than Time and Distance."
Kevin Arnold
'The Wonder Years'

"Time can take forever."
Olive Snooks
'Pushing Daisies'

"Forever's a long time. I know that first hand."
Mark Volchek
'Wiseguy'

"Eternity's an awful long time to go without a coon hunt."
Heider Simpson
'The Twilight Zone'

"Time is irrelevant in the Limbo state."
Dr. Dagle
'Shades of L.A.'

Jude:
"He's locked himself in his room with his teddy bear!"
Pip:
"He hasn't done that since he proved that Time was an illusion!"
'Supernova'
