Jason Reitman

Kids don't eat fast. They take their time; they talk and laugh. Sometimes it's really annoying, because you're like, 'Come on, it's bedtime!' But try it: You'll fill up before you know it, because it takes 20 minutes for your brain to know your stomach is full.
Alison Sweeney

Time, Brain, Before

Danny Boyle

Time, America, Big
