Time Bureau

Famous quotes containing the words time and/or bureau:

    the gap of today filling itself
    as emptiness is distributed
    in the idea of what time it is
    when that time is already past
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    We know what the animals do, what are the needs of the beaver, the bear, the salmon, and other creatures, because long ago men married them and acquired this knowledge from their animal wives. Today the priests say we lie, but we know better.
    native American belief, quoted by D. Jenness in “The Carrier Indians of the Bulkley River,” Bulletin no. 133, Bureau of American Ethnology (1943)
