Article: What will happen to us in time? Time starts now.

My mother likes to watch old movies on TMC, because there are no commercials. As I am passing through the den, on my way out, I will
sit down and watch a few minutes with her. The other day we were watching Bullit.

"What will happen to us in time?", says the girl.
"Time starts now," says Steve McQueen, in his understated voice.

Since I get most of my good lines from movies, here is another that continues the theme, from Music and Lyrics.

"Pros and Cons?", asks Hugh Grant.
"Cons. In 40 years we will both be dead," Brad Garrett

Time starts now.
