Of the two powers, the two categories that take possession of us when we enter the world, space is by far the less mysterious.. .. Space is, after all, solid, monolithic.. .. Time, on the other hand, is a hostile element, truly treacherous, I would say even against human nature.

About This Quote

We all know that the Earth is a flat plane. It's not like we can measure its circumference and it doesn't really matter if we walk around in a circle, we will always be at the same spot. For the same reasons we think that time is not solid and that it can be manipulated and used to our advantage. We may forget that the Earth is round and that we are moving at a constant speed around the Sun.
