A Movie Of The Past

We are always acting on what has just finished happening. It happened at least 1/30th of a second ago. We think we’re in the present, but we aren’t. The present we know is only a movie of the past.

-- Ken Kesey (1935-2001), American writer, author of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test (1968), Ch. 11: The Unspoken Thing
