Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for August 22, 1993

Transcript:

Calvin: I wish we could stop summer right here and have the days stay just the way they are. That's the problem with life. It rolls along with speed you can't control. You can't go faster or slower. Fun experiences always go roaring by. ...While bad experiences never pass quickly enough. I wish we could choose how fast and slow events go. For example, I'd like to speed up childhood and get to driving age. Hobbes: It's not the pace of life I mind. It's the sudden stop at the end.
