In The Wide Window, from A Series of Unfortunate Events, the Baudelaire orphans are desperate after reading the supposed suicide note of their aunt.
"'I'm not sure,' Klaus said, looking over the note one more time. 'I might have begun figuring something out. Something that could help us. But I need more time.'
'But we don't have any time!' Violet cried.
...
'Then we're going to have to make some more time somehow,' Klaus said determinedly.
...
'How can we make more time?' Violet asked.
'You're the inventor,' Klaus answered....
'But you can't invent things like time,' Violet said. 'You can invent things like automatic popcorn poppers. You can invent things like steam-powered window washers. But you can't invent more time.'"
