“Time’s a goon, right? You gonna let that goon push you around? Scotty shook his head. The goon won.” - Jennifer Egan

Decryption of quote

Time’s a goon, right? Have you ever felt like time is this relentless force, constantly pushing and prodding you along, never stopping for a moment to let you catch your breath? It's like a goon, a bully that won't let you have a moment of peace.

But you gonna let that goon push you around? Are you going to stand by and let time dictate your every move, your every decision? Are you going to let it control you, shape you into someone you don't want to be?

Scotty shook his head. Scotty refused to be a victim of time, to be a puppet in its hands. He shook his head in defiance, in determination to take control of his own destiny.

The goon won. Despite Scotty's best efforts, time still had the upper hand. It still managed to overpower him, to dictate the course of his life. The goon emerged victorious in the end.

But does that mean you should give up? Should you just throw in the towel and let time have its way with you? No, absolutely not. Scotty may have lost the battle, but the war is far from over.

Take a stand. Stand up to time, to the goon that tries to push you around. Show it that you are not to be trifled with, that you have the strength and the willpower to overcome its relentless march.

Don't let time control you. Take charge of your own life, make your own decisions, and carve out your own path. Time may be a goon, but you are a force to be reckoned with.

Rise above. Rise above the constraints of time, the limitations it tries to impose on you. Be the master of your own fate, the captain of your own ship.

Don't let the goon win. Don't let time have the final say in your story. Take control, seize the moment, and make the most of the time you have. The goon may have won this round, but the battle is far from over.
