Quotes About Time

Well, SMI2LE is Leary's slogan for space migration, plus intelligence increase, plus life extension. It's an interesting formula because, if you want to look at it this way, we all live in a triangle of space, time and consciousness. How much space can we travel through? How much time do we have? And how conscious are we of what's going on? The whole direction of evolution seems to be to produce beings that have much more space, more time and more consciousness.

as Bucky Fuller said, "The universe consists of non-simultaneously apprehended events". NON-SIMULTANEOUSLY. The universe consists of NON-SIMULTANEOUSLY apprehended events. Which means any belief system or reality tunnel you've got right now is gonna have to be revised and updated as you continue to apprehend new events later in time. Not simultaneously.

I deduce that everybody tends to believe the clock, or alleged clock, that fits his own reality-tunnel.

Well, as explained in the last section, non-local correlations transcend causality and also subvert our traditional notions of space and time. If two particles — or events, or Whatnots — have a non-local correlation, in modern quantum theory, this means that they will remain correlated even when no signal, no field, no mechanical push-or-pull, no energy, no cause of any sort can travel from one to the other.

The unconscious Joyce represents is not merely an area within the brains of his creatures. It is a network of connections through time and space that extends beyond any awareness but the most absolute.

Time is in-form-ation. Fuller simplifies Einstein into a one-sentence poem: Matter is knots in energy. Matter is interference patterns. All radiations travel in geodesics, due to gravity which curves their trajectories. Where these trajectories cross, interference results: knots in energy, perceived by us as matter. The world of matter is the tuned-in. The not-yet-tuned-in is not not, it is merely not knot. Dig?

The first and second circuits are Evolutionary Stable Strategies. They have worked, in more or less the same form, not just for primates but for other mammals, and for many other species, over vast aeons of time. The third, semantic circuit is an Evolutionary Unstable Strategy. It could very accurately be called revolutionary rather than evolutionary.

She leaned back a little in her chair and looked at me in silence for a considerable time. Finally she said, "Of all the banks, in all the world, you had to walk into this one." "We'll always have Cambridge," I said.

Everyone froze. In real time the whole sequence had probably taken ten seconds. In the slow motion of crisis time it had unreeled in ponderous elegance, and the crystalline immobility that followed was intensified by the lingering smell of gunfire, like an olfactory echo of the big bang.

I sat and looked up at the blue sky and across at the blank windows for a long time. A woman I'd once cared about had worked in anadvertising agency over there. Sometimes, when the sun came at them from a different angle, I could see through the windows across the street and watch her moving about her office. Agency was gone now. Maybe the whole building was gone, replaced by a new one. It was hard to remember.

Somebody's helping you and you have to take time off to listen to them and pretend you think their ideas are great and come up with an answer that makes them feel good

I was doing curls. Hawk said, "How you and Susan doing?" "Love is lovelier," I said, "the second time around." "Worth the scramble," Hawk said.

It was 10:45. Across the continent Susan would be putting on her makeup now, and spraying some perfume on herself and making sure her hair was perfect. I looked at my reflection in the window. My hair wasn't perfect. Neither was I.

Please send me a bill for your services through"—he looked at his watch—"through today," he said. "And you'll pay it with a rubber check," I said.

It was really a fascinating book—no wonder he hadn't noticed how fast the time had passed.

Twelve years had passed, and now he'd come full circle. The whole business had started here, and here it must end. That was simple justice.

Travel backwards in time? I don't see any future in it.

Por qué personificamos al Tiempo? ¿Será porque tenemos que admitir que nuestras vidas están medidas por una fuerza abstracta, que ignora y tampoco le importa nada de lo referente a nuestra entrada en la existencia y nuestra partida en la muerte? El tiempo era algo misterioso; y, al darle un rostro y unas manos, intentamos convertirlo en nuestro servidor.

Heart, fear nothing, for, heart, thou shalt find her- Next time, herself!-not the trouble behind her

I shut my eyes and turned them on my heart, As a man calls for wine before he fights, I asked one draught of earlier, happier sights, Ere fitly I could hope to play my part. Think first, fight afterwards, the soldier's art: One taste of the old time sets all to rights.
