Everything that is visible is temporal.
Time only has one mode of transportation. It flies.
Reality moves unnoticeably in the alternatives space like the minute hand on a watch, but that does not mean it is not moving! That
MYSTERY OF THE TRAVELING
The truth can only be absolute as any relativity may include the untruth towards the system of reference where it varies.
Minkowski spacetime.
The Speed of Light: It's Not Just a Good Idea It's the Law. Unlike
Matter is spirit moving slowly enough to be seen.
We say that the world's magnificence has been enriched by a new beauty: the beauty of speed ... Time and Space died yesterday. We already live in the absolute, because we have created eternal, omnipresent speed.
For us physicists believe the separation between past, present, and future is only an illusion, although a convincing one.
The new formula in physics describes humans as paradoxical beings who have two complementary aspects: They can show properties of Newtonian objects and also infinite fields of consciousness.
It is as though the space between us were time: an irrevocable quality. It is as though time, no longer running straight before us in a diminishing line, now runs parallel between us like a looping string, the distance being the doubling accretion of the thread an not the interval between.
The extreme parts of time extremely forms all causes to the purpose of his speed.
Time is merely the passing of awareness
Time can behave like another direction in space under extreme conditions.
When I look back on my life-and an extraordinary transformation is happening again to me right now - I describe it as my "point of observation" is moving. It is moving because my range of frequencies I am accessing is becoming greater. It's not because I'm something special because anyone can do it.
The master is presence. The world is relativity and relativity has limitations. Presence is unlimited.
Relativity must replace absolutism in the realm of morals as well as in the spheres of physics and biology.
That's a lesson we can all learn: the more we have, the more we want. And the only cure is to break the cycle of relativity.
Particle physicists may freeze a second, open it up, and explore its dappled contents like surgeons pawing through an abdomen, but in real life, when events occur within thousandths of a second, our minds cannot distinguish past from future.
Quantum mechanics extends this relativity in a radical way: all variable aspects of an object exist only in relation to other objects. It is only in interactions that nature draws the world.
everything travels through spacetime at the speed of light.
We are all time travelers moving at the speed of exactly 60 minutes per hour.
The modern physicist is a quantum theorist on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and a student of gravitational relativity on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. On Sunday, he is praying ... that someone will find the reconciliation between the two views.
Everyone you see is you in a different time & space.
Einstein, my upset stomach hates your theory [of General Relativity] - it almost hates you yourself! How am I to' provide for my students? What am I to answer to the philosophers?!!
Too bad Einstein's dead. I'm sure he would have appreciated my latest discovery
within the space-time continuum.The closer you are to experiencing a monumental event, the longer time
stretches out. It makes you feel alone
The Theory of Relativity confers an absolute meaning on a magnitude which in classical theory has only a relative significance: the velocity of light. The velocity of light is to the Theory of Relativity as the elementary quantum of action is to the Quantum Theory: it is its absolute core.
Time is an optical illusion- never quite as soild or strong as we think it is
But the velocities of the velocities - the second, third, fourth, and fifth velocities, etc. - exceed, if I mistake not, all human understanding ...
The speed of time is one second per second.
Einstein said that all physicists were aware that the distinctions between past, present, and future were only what he called 'a stubbornly persistent illusion.' Not only did he believe in marvels and wonders, he also believed in the elasticity of time.
No matter how hard you try to teach your cat general relativity, you're going to fail.
Einstein is loved because he is gentle, respected because he is wise. Relativity being not for most of us, we elevate its author to a position somewhere between Edison, who gave us a tangible gleam, and God, who gave us the difficult dark and the hope of penetrating it.
Today we say that the law of relativity is supposed to be true at all energies, but someday somebody may come along and say how stupid we were.
We are coming into a new era of flight, an ear in which all past conception of time and distance is changing and changing at a very, very rapid rate.
There are, above all, times in which the human reality, always mobile, accelerates, and bursts into vertiginous speeds. Our time is such a one, for it is made of descent and fall.
Space and time are not objects of perception, but qualities of awareness
Time, space, and causality are only metaphors of knowledge, with which we explain things to ourselves.
Time is not a movement in space. Space is a movement in time.
Physics can be difficult sometimes. And by sometimes, I mean always. And by Physics, I mean everything.
If my theory of relativity is proven successful, Germany will claim me as a German and France will declare me a citizen of the world. Should my theory prove untrue, France will say that I am a German, and Germany will declare that I am a Jew.
We measure time according to the movement of countless suns; and they measure time by little machines in their little pockets.
Now tell me, how could we ever meet at the same place and the same time?
Even now, when I imagine Einstein's dendrites and neurons firing as his brain lit upon relativity, I picture Baghdad, with its minarets and modern-antennaed buildings sparkling beneath thousands of phantasmagorical tracers, under Allied attack on a very dark night.
There was a young lady of Wight Who travelled much faster than light. She departed one day, In a relative way, And arrived on the previous night. The point is that the theory of relativity says that there is no unique measure of time that all observers will agree on.
To tell the truth, I couldn't care less about the relativity of knowledge, simply because the world does not deserve to be known.
I claim that relativity and the rest of modern physics is not complicated. It can be explained very simply. It is only unusual or, put another way, it is contrary to common sense.
Time and space are just projections of your consciousness.
The modern concept of the vacuum of space, confirmed every day by experiment, is a relativistic ether.
To create the reality of space with this sense of suspension: nothing's happening, it's endless; we're traveling at 28,000 kilometers an hour but nothing's happening. Nothing! And you have to do that! There are all these rules you have to follow, I've never known anything like it.
Formerly, people thought that if matter disappeared from the universe, space and time would remain. Relativity declares that space and time would disappear with matter.
And it really began with Einstein. We attended his lectures. Now the theory of relativity remained - and still remains - only a theory. It has not been proven. But it suggested a completely different picture of the physical world.
Time dissipates to shining ether the solid angularity of facts.
We race toward the future at the velocity of the present.
The reconciliation of nothing and reality and the suspension of time and space by high velocities replace the exoticism of journeys with a vast expanse of emptiness.
Time is the moving image of eternity.
The total number of people who understand relativistic time, even after eighty years since the advent of special relativity, is still much smaller than the number of people who believe in horoscopes.
Time collapses and expands like an erratic accordion ...
We live in a Newtonian world of Einsteinian physics ruled by Frankenstein logic.
Distance is created by time is further than space
One must stand stiller than still. On reverse time travel.
Einstein was wrong! IM the speed of like CRACKING through shivery rainbows and GOD the sky whirls and withers like a melting RAINBOW!
It is probably safe to say that all the changes of factual knowledge which have led to the relativity theory, resulting in a very great theoretical development, are completely trivial from any point of view except their relevance to the structure of a theoretical system.
The Earth is moving right now.
The whole Universe is moving all the time, and we must do like-wise.

Time is construct, in relativity every thing flows, no past or present, only the now.
Spacetime grips mass, telling it how to move ...
Mass grips spacetime, telling it how to curve
Time is an illusion.
I'm a great believer in relativity when making movies. Relativity, in my mind, meaning "Light to dark, big to small, good to bad." You visually embrace these things to enhance transitions and instantly paint environments and moods.
Time does not always pass at the same speed. We are the ones who determine that speed.
When I meet God, I am going to ask him two questions: Why relativity ? And why turbulence ? I really believe he will have an answer for the first.
Space. The continual becoming: invisible fountain from which all rhythms flow and to which they must pass. Beyond time or infinity
The future stands still dear Mr Kappus, but we move in infinite space.
And as short as two miles had come to seem to him over the course of his running career, it occurred to him now that two miles was an insurmountable distance to an infant, or a legless man, or a human cadaver for that matter. Einstein was right, he decided. It is all relative.
The physics of motion provides one of the clearest examples of the counter-intuitive and unexpected nature of science.
You cannot travel within and stand still without.
There are optical errors in time as there are in space.
Every living being is an engine geared to the wheelwork of the universe. Though seemingly affected only by its immediate surrounding, the sphere of external influence extends to infinite distance.
But had Minkowski and Einstein not recognized it long before us, our schizophrenic children would have taught us that space-time is a unity that precedes any separate understanding of either category; just as grasping this unity is a precondition for understanding causality.
Space-the illusion that one is getting somewhere.
The outstanding feature, however, is the possibility that the velocity-distance relation may represent the de Sitter effect, and hence that numerical data may be introduced into discussions of the general curvature of space.
True time is four-dimensional.
There are optical illusions in time as well as space.
Perception is the illusion that gives all matter mass, The Flight of the Eagle A.K. Luthienne
The universe is Time's body.
How this life speeds right by, the odometer forgetting how fast it sped. Grinding the foot and pressing the metal, not counting road side markers ahead
When general relativity was first put forward in 1915, the math was very unfamiliar to most physicists. Now we teach general relativity to advanced high school students.
Physics changes, but reality stays the same
The influence of modern physics goes beyond technology. It extends to the realm of thought and culture where it has led to a deep revision in man's conception of the universe and his relation to it
In my personal experience I have hardly come to know the wretchedness of mankind better than as a result of the general theory of relativity and everything connected to it. But it doesn't bother me.
We can say the stars are moving because we have a relative context.
The belief that time is a linear, directed sequence running from A to B is a modern illusion. In fact, it can also go from B to A, the effect producing the cause.
Time is on its eternal journey at the same time it is motionless, emotionless and standing still.
Einstein didn't invent the theory of relativity while he was multitasking at the Swiss patent office.
quoting, David Meyer, a cognitive scientist at the University of Michigan
Time and space are only forms of thought.
