Timelines Quotes : pic 000684496
Like students of art who walk around a great statue, seeing parts and aspects of it from each position, but never the whole, we must walk mentally around time, using a variety of approaches, a pandemonium of metaphor.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000500713
I had not expected 'A Brief History of Time' to be a best seller. It was my first popular book and aroused a great deal of interest. Initially, many people found it difficult to understand. I therefore decided to try to write a new version that would be easier to follow.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001248858
Time and times are but cogwheels, unmatched, grinding on oblivious to one another. Occasionally - oh, very rarely! - the cogs fit; the pieces of the plot snap together momentarily and give men faint glimpses beyond the veil of this everyday blindness we call reality.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001714702
A milestone is less date and more definition.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001194925
Time is like an enterprising manager always bent on staging some new and surprising production, without knowing very well what it will be.

Each person's life is dominated by a central event, which shapes and distorts everything that comes after it and, in retrospect, everything that came before.

Time is a wonderful storyteller.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000458195
Sometimes that's a year, sometimes it's 18 months, where all I'm doing is taking notes. I'm reconstructing the story from the back to the front so that I know where the front is.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001237228
Life is in time; seconds, minutes and hours
Timelines Quotes : pic 000353943
Every story is a ride to some place and time other than here and now. Buried in an armchair, reclined on a couch, prostrate on your bed, or glued to your desk, you can go places and travel through time.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001843058
I am strongly of the opinion that chronology is very important. The great arc of time is what children are wired for.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000288705
Events often move faster than our ability to comprehend them.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001455428
And now the sequence of events in no particular order.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001591090
Where to start is the problem, because nothing begins when it begins and nothing's over when it's over, and everything needs a preface: a preface, a postscript, a chart of simultaneous events.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000858920
When I look at my life there are these streams, these things that have continuity from the fifties to now.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001556216
Great events are the hour-hands of time, while small events mark the minutes.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001219533
Time is not so all-erasing as we think.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001844528
Our histories plan our futures.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000520847
Time is a strange storyteller. It writes, erases and rewrites endlessly. Things change, places and people become unrecognizable, but stories are repeated endlessly
Timelines Quotes : pic 001010891
Events are only the shells of ideas; and often it is the fluent thought of ages that is crystallized in a moment by the stroke of a pen or the point of a bayonet.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000759643
I'm 14 years in the game, ... There's some kids that weren't even born when my first album came out. I wanted to draw a timeline between my old stuff and my new stuff and bridge it to where there's a level of continuity.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000441285
Years were passing through the spaces between moments.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001312435
Events in the past maybe roughly divided into those which and probably never happened and those which do not matter.

Nearly every notable event in 'Wake' has a date or a time stamp.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001695289

Timelines Quotes : pic 001830148
History is rooted in the future
Timelines Quotes : pic 000930778

I mentioned that one of the tripartite formulas in American worldview involves time: past, present, and future.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000311949

Timelines Quotes : pic 001050254
In photography there is no meantime. There was just that moment and now there's this moment and in between there is nothing. Photography, in a way, is the negation of chronology.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000592188
Physicists now say there is no such thing as time: everything co-exists. Chronology is entirely artificial and essentially determined by emotion. Contiguity suggests layers of things, the past and present somehow coalescing or co-existing.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000782953
Life may unfold chronologically for the body and for bureaucracies that keep track of such things as births, marriages, deaths, visas, tax returns, expulsions, and identity cards, but memory does not play this game in quite the same way, always manages to confound the desire for tidiness.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000176087
Our lives are structured by our memories of events. Event X happened just before the big Paris vacation. I was doing Y in the first summer after I learned to drive. Z happened the weekend after I landed my first job. We remember events by positioning them in time relative to other events.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000970366
I keep an elaborate calendar for my characters detailing on which dates everything happens. I'm constantly revising this as I go along. It gives me the freedom to intricately plot my story, knowing it will at least hold up on a timeline.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000870746
History has spurts and then is steady, and then maybe even backing up a step, and then forward again.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001827712
History and memory share events; that is, they share time and space. Every moment is two moments.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000526883
'The Pushcart War' is presented as a history of a conflict that has not yet taken place; in each edition of the book, the date on which the hostilities commenced is nudged forward.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001143099
By sight and observation and thought, with the help of the camera, and the addition of the date of the year, we can hold fast the history of the world.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001856910
In this world, the spots where the present seems to overlap the past are the most important. These are the points when one becomes aware that the direction of the world can change.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000785119
Expositions are the timekeepers of progress.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001565165
History isn't about dates and places and wars. It's about the people who fill the spaces between them.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000532185
History may be divided into three movements: what moves rapidly, what moves slowly and what appears not to move at all.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001542053
The past, the present and the future are really one: they are today.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001835602
A story is time itself, boxed and compressed.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000896542
Bound as our lives are to the tyranny of time, it is through what we know of history that we are delivered from our bonds and escape - into time.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000923446
The supremacy of expediency is being refuted by time and truth. Time is an essential dimension of existence defiant of man's power, and truth reigns in supreme majesty, unrivaled, inimitable, and can never be defeated.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001800939
Time is the nervous system of narration, whether factual or fictive. If it gets confused some of the minutiae of human nature are certain not to work, not to glow, not to strike home.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001514622
Wait a minute! Wait a minute! I figured this out.
I know what's wrong with what we've done in Iraq.
We've been following time as it goes forward.
What a classic mistake. Linear time is so pre-9-11.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001673765
Although the world places a premium on the latest things, some realities are discovered by looking into the past.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001382258

Timelines Quotes : pic 001024835
The big picture doesn't just come from distance; it also comes from time.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001279494
The event of history is hidden in time.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001344160
No matter how long you waited, no matter how hard you wished, no matter how much you missed the past, time marched forward.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001189674
Life is an eternal instant.
Chronological time does not exist.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001776905
That time when past begins to look longer than the future
Timelines Quotes : pic 001279258
History, rather than following a predictable path from the past to the present, is like a meander: a twisting and turning stream shaped over time by a combination of obvious and imperceptible forces.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001522393
No matter how carefully records are kept and filed and computerized, they grow fuzzy with time. Stories grow by accretion. Tales accumulate
like dust. The longer the time lapse, the dustier the history
until it degenerates into fables.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001548938
STUDYING TIME MACHINES IN FLATLAND
Timelines Quotes : pic 001844554
Just like a movie, our lives are simply a series of individual moments, snapshots in time.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001011747
History works on a long time scale, and at any given moment we can perceive its directions but imperfectly.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000799782
At one end of the continuum known as history are first-time events that have generated notable measures of public recognition due to either a positive or negative impact ...
Timelines Quotes : pic 001640818
Much of the study of history is a matter of comparison, of relating what was happening in one area to what was happening elsewhere, and what had happened in the past. To view a period in isolation is to miss whatever message it has to offer.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000388363
History (that list
of ballooning wishes, flukes,
bent times, plunges and mistakes
clutched like parachutes)
is rolling itself up in your head
at one end unrolling at the other.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000764669
First comes the day, then the seconds of the event, then the days which become weeks, then the months, then the years.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000572678
You need one of those recap sequences," Trey says. "Like, 'Hi, I'm Kate. Here are a few things you might need to know.'"
Charlayne smiles. "Previously on The Vampire Diaries."
"Or," Ben says, "' The Timeline So Far,' like on Supernatural.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001807057
The past rolls forward to touch the present hour.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001021797
Today, we don't talk about history. The past is two weeks ago, and the future is two weeks after.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000069841
Fiction that responds to recent world events is a hostage to fortune, because all momentous events look very different a year, two years, three years later.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000485360
The speed of change today is faster than the human psyche seems able to handle, and it's increasingly difficult to reconcile the rhythms of our personal lives with the rapidity of a twenty-four-hour news cycle.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001647554
Time is the chronological breakdown of life
Timelines Quotes : pic 000012512
Histories never conclude; they just pause their prose. Their stories are, if they are truthful, untidy affairs, resistant to windings-up and sortings-out. They beat raggedly on into the future ...
Timelines Quotes : pic 000696288
Today's Europeans and Americans who reached the age of awareness after midcentury when the communications revolution lead to expectations of instantanaiy are exasperated by the slow toils of history. They assume that the thunderclap of cause will be swiftly followed by the lightening bolt of effect.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001119766
Temporality temporalizes as a future which makes present in the process of having been.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001853765
History is but a kind of Newgate calendar, a register of the crimes and miseries that man has inflicted on his fellow-man.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001246911
The future comes slowly, the present flies and the past stands still forever.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000613292
We can see well into the past; we can guess shrewdly into the future, but that which is rolled up and muffled in impenetrable folds is today.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000141663
Whenever I attempt to frame a simple idea of time, abstracted from the succession of ideas in my mind, which flows uniformly, and is participated by all beings, I am lost and embrangled in inextricable difficulties.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001415505
History is made not simply with events, but by remembering those events, a double drumbeat like a heartbeat. History can be written not only with books but with ceremonies. Yet a real event read about in a newspaper is not always more important than a fictional one in a novel or play or poem.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001394506
Time does not give one much leeway: it thrusts us forward from behind, blows us through the narrow tunnel of the present into the future. But space is broad, teeming with possibilities, positions, intersections, passages, detours, U-turns, dead-ends, one-way streets. Too many possibilities, indeed.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000949688
History is a facsimile of events held together by finally biographical information.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000541159
Time unravels what happens within time.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000940205
Every painting I do blends time frames. The great thing about being an artist is I can make the past join the present in some reality of the future.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001720139
We live in time, it bounds us and defines us, and time is supposed to measure history, isn't it? But if we can't understand time, can't grasp its mysteries of pace and progress, what chance do we have with history
even our own small, personal, largely undocumented piece of it?
Timelines Quotes : pic 001659174
Just before I'd moved to New York, two historic events had occurred: The birth control pill had been invented, and the first Julia Child cookbook was published. As a result, everyone was having sex, and when the sex was over, you cooked something.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000082162
You and I move through time like a flame on a string. The ashes behind are the past, consumed, unreachable. The string ahead is the future. But the only moment we inhabit, the only moment where we can act, is the present, the point where the flame burns, the point where time touches eternity.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000491564
The past is set down in a thousand thousand indelible scrolls. But the future is a blank parchment forever in wait of a present.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001466559
Our minds simply don't function in some sort of narrative chronology. I think that one of the great gifts of writing fiction is being able to think about that.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000650813
We live in biological time, and we have beginnings, middles, and ends.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000202150
Why we do what we do: that moment when you get to see the future on your computer screen before the rest of the world.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001715016
A historical event represents the best and the worst of that moment.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001201123
Time past and time future
what might have been and what has been
point to one end, which is always present.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001164043
Schools are launching pads, launching our kids into their futures. Unfortunately, a lot of what we teach now looks identical to what we taught 40, 50, or 60 years ago. There's a need for both timeless curriculum content and timely content. What seems to be falling by the wayside is timely content.
Timelines Quotes : pic 001059118
Today's news is tomorrow's history.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000774302
I am really interested in the way we relate to time. In particular, the way readers and writers talk to each other. Casting your voice out into the future is very beautiful to me.
Timelines Quotes : pic 000496725
History is a wave that moves through time slightly faster than we do.
