The Hopi "have no general notion or intuition of time as a smooth flowing continuum in which everything in the universe proceeds at an equal rate, out of a future, through a present, into a past; or, in which to reverse the picture, the observer is being carried in the stream of duration continuously away from a past and into a future," meaning that the Hopi don't conceive of time as a divisible entity, separate from experience.  —from Benjamin Lee Whorf, unpublished, unfinished article, 1950, p. 27
