The full quote in dirty imperial units:
I live my life a quarter mile at a time. Nothing else matters: not the mortgage, not the store, not my team and all their bullshit. For those ten seconds or less, I’m free.
– The Fast and the Furious
How was this translated to metric?
It alternatively:
“Give someone an inch and they’ll take over your kingdom”
(I know I’m misrepresenting but at least in my experience… it has happened quite a few times)
