At the precise moment when heat is produced, the process is irreversible: the past differs from the future. It is always heat and only heat that distinguishes the past from the future. This is universal. A burning candle is transformed into smoke, the smoke cannot transform into a candle-and a candle produces heat.

He understood the way that you could sometimes fall right into them, as if each page was a hole into another world.
~ George R.R. Martin
