Time can’t be measured in days the way money is measured in pesos and centavos, because all pesos are equal, while every day, perhaps every hour, is different.
Jorge Luis Borges, “Juan Muraña,” in Brodie’s Report (1970); tr. Andrew Hurley, Collected Fictions (1998).

Well, no. One day differs from another in more than just time, but the mere difference in time itself is measurable in units of time.
