Time Travel?


He has made everything to suit its time; moreover he has given men a sense of time past and future, but no comprehension of God's work from beginning to end.

The Speaker (Ecclesiastes 3:11, New English Bible)

That then this Beginning was, is a
matter of faith, and so infallible.
When it was, is a matter of Reason,
and therefore various and perplex'd.

John Donne

Time Travel?

... I, for my own part, cannot think that these latter days of weak experiment, fragmentary theory, and mutual discord are indeed man's culminating time!

The Narrator (H. G. Wells,The Time Machine, 1895)

This thing cannot keep going so that we are always going to discover more and more laws. ... The age in which we live is the age in which we are discovering the fundamental laws of nature, and that will never come again.

Richard Feynman

The laws of physics do not allow time machines.

Stephen Hawking

Vacuum fluctuations cannot prevent the formation of or existence of closed timelike curves.

Kip S. Thorne

What we call the beginning is often the end
And to make an end is to make a beginning.
The end is where we start from.

T. S. Eliot
