The Time Machine



  • 每個人都有一部屬於自己的時光機器
    帶領我們回到過去的是回憶
    引領我們走向未來的則是夢想


    〈The Time Machine 1895 - H.G.Wells〉





<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_Theory_of_the_Universe >


  • Very simple was my explanation, and plausible enough - as most wrong theories are!
  • Even when mind and strength had gone, gratitude and a mutual tenderness still lived on in the heart of man.
  • Nature never appeals to intelligence until habit and instinct are useless. There is no intelligence where there is no change and no need of change.
  • There is no difference between Time and any of the three dimensions of Space except that our consciousness moves along it.
  • It is a law of nature we overlook, that intellectual versatility is the compensation for change, danger, and trouble.
  • In a moment I knew what had happened. I had slept, and my fire had gone out, and the cold bitterness of death had come over my soul
