In fact, I think when we carry out a complete analysis of time, I think what we're going to discover is that like matter, time is composed of elemental, discrete types.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
In the future, maybe quantum mechanics will teach us something equally chilling about exactly how we exist from moment to moment of what we like to think of as time.
The particular aspect of time that I'm interested in is the arrow of time: the fact that the past is different from the future. We remember the past but we don't remember the future. There are irreversible processes. There are things that happen, like you turn an egg into an omelet, but you can't turn an omelet into an egg.
I'm trying to understand how time works. And that's a huge question that has lots of different aspects to it.
Time is nature's way of keeping everything from happening at once.
I'm fascinated by the fact that we can't grasp anything about time.
The abstract analysis of the world by mathematics and physics rests on the concepts of space and time.
I time everything. I'm a scientist at heart.
Time is still the great mystery to us. It is no more than a concept; we don't know if it even exists.
Time is only an idea. There is only the Reality. Whatever you think it is, it looks like that. If you call it time, it is time. If you call it existence, it is existence, and so on. After calling it time, you divide it into days and nights, months, years, hours, minutes, etc. Time is immaterial for the Path of Knowledge.
Time is not an absolute reality but an aspect of our consciousness.
