Ive never paid any attention to time. Dancer says Ive enjoyed a luxury most people never have. He hates clocks and watches and everything that has to do with time. He says people already have too many lost days and that most folks live in the past or the future but never the present, always saying stuff like Im unhappy because X happened to me yesterday, or Ill be happy again when Y happens to me tomorrow. He says time is the ultimate villain.
