When I was 4 or 5 I thought there were only four ways to tell time. something-o'clock, something-30, a quarter till, and something-half passed.
A childhood belief about general
others believed things like this
- I thought that a quarter hour was 25 minutes long, since a quarter was worth $0.25.— Crystal
- I used to believe that a quarter after the hour was 25 minutes after the hour because 25 cents = a quarter.— Marni
- I used to believe that your belly button was what held your top half to your bottom half...— Debelouwho
- I used to think that we were breaking a law every time my mom passed a "Do Not Pass" sign on the road. — Kyra
- I used to believe that The Quarter moon was God's fingernail clippings— Brandon
- i used to think that a'quarterback' was some guy who ran around with a giant quarter on his back! i was dumb— :]
