Time Axis

Famous quotes containing the words time and/or axis:

    Let us drink anew to the time when you
    Were a tadpole and I was a fish.
    Langdon Smith (1858–1908)

    A book is not an autonomous entity: it is a relation, an axis of innumerable relations. One literature differs from another, be it earlier or later, not because of the texts but because of the way they are read: if I could read any page from the present time—this one, for instance—as it will be read in the year 2000, I would know what the literature of the year 2000 would be like.
    Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)
