I don't know the source of this truism.
(Gosh, well, that itself is a truism, innit.)
Neither do I know the source of the following truism (although I am quite sure that it's from a Goddard College student):
The perception of time within a finite experience is analogous to the lifespan of a toilet-tissue roll. It seems initially to be boundlessly present, and use (let's say a 1-foot segment) does little visibly to diminish its abundance perceptibly. But then, a threshold of sorts is crossed, and that same 1-foot segment means so much more to the girth of the roll, yet nothing can be done about it. The real-life applications of this axiom are both apt and irritating.
