“... And two thousand years, that's nothing, the earth had existed for thousands and thousands more years than that and would probably exist for thousands more. The water will flow for thousands of years more, without him seeing it. And even if the world did end, that still didn't really mean anything. There would be so much more time afterwards, time would never end. And all that time, he would be dead. The Freeloader” — Nescio
