They will live in water for a long time as well..
True! I actually have 3 only in water right now!
Depending on the time of year and other factors they will also put out air roots and even without the air roots you can clone it straight into dirt during spring and summer.
Yes, you can root any length cutting. Longer cuttings will generally do better as well.
I cut mine and repot directly into soil. Water and badda bing badda boom, full plant.
It's very hard to kill a golden pothos. Just cut it up and throw it in dirt, or throw it in a bowl of water for a week or a year, it really doesn't care. The plants don't die
