Quote #10
And Time lies dead in a rice-paddy. (3.24.57)
We won't blame you if you can't remember where this happens. This is after Saleem (then known as the Buddha) joins the Pakistani army and runs away from the warfare that he sees happening in Bangladesh. He tries to get it on with a farmer's wife, and the farmer comes out wielding a sickle so that he looks like father time. They literally kill a farmer, but metaphorically they kill time. Do you remember how that worked out for them during the rest of the mission?
