Although possibly not the first, Douglas Adams said, or at least wrote: "Time is an illusion.”*
He was almost certainly the first to add: “Lunchtime doubly so."*
While failing to address the, “Lunchtime doubly so," clause, Dr. Nikodem Poplawski** explains that time is an illusion ultimately created by living inside a black hole:

"Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so."
"Very deep," said Arthur, "you should send that in to the Reader's Digest. They've got a page for people like you."
