It was promised to us for the duration of our time on Earth. But He will hold each one of us accountable in the end for how we applied this power of agency.”

“Nobody seems to know which came first; egg or chicken – except of course for agents of the Time Saving Agency – who can find out anything about, well – anything. The only trouble is, they aren’t talking – however, you can take it from me – they know.

While this may appear to be a rather flippant little idiom, there is – as is usually the case, far more to it than meets the eye.”
