I remember reading about someone who enjoyed spending long periods lying on his back and looking up at the sky because it was the best way he knew of ‘slowing time’. Was it in Heller’s Catch-22, anyone?
But… “Le plus lourd fardeau c’est d’exister sans vivre” or, in my Australian accent, “The most heavy burden is to exist, without living”
Victor Hugo, “Les Châtiments”
