Be careful how you think; your life is shaped by your thoughts.
Never say anything that isn’t true. Have nothing to do with lies and
misleading words.
Proverbs 4:23

What we are today comes from our thoughts of yesterday,
and our present thoughts build our life of tomorrow,
our life is the creation of our mind.
Lord Buddha

[Derkein]

Reality creates consciousness (as we personally understand consciousness)

A jug fills drop by drop.
Buddha

[Time's] Moving Finger writes; and, having writ,
Moves on: nor all your Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a line,
Nor all you tears wash out a Word of it.
Omar Khayyám, The Rubáiyát

In any attempt to bridge the domains of experience belonging to the spiritual and physical sides of our nature, time occupies the key position.
Arthur Eddington

The relativistic union of space with time is far more appropriately characterized as a dynamization of space rather than a spatialisation of time.
Milic Capek

The history of natural philosophy is characterized by the interplay of two rival philosophies of time, one aiming at its "elimination" and the other based on the belief that it is fundamental and irreducible.
G. J. Whitrow

Past and future must be ackowledged to be as real as the present, and a certain emancipation from slavery to time is essential to philosophic thought.
Bertrand Russell

Our destiny . . . is not frightful because it is unreal; it is frightful because it is irreversible and ironbound. Time is the substance of which I am made. Time is a river which sweeps me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger which mangles me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire which consumes me, but I am the fire. The world, unfortunately, is real; I, unfortunately, am Borges.
Jorge Luis Borges

Apart from time there is no meaning for purpose, hope, fear, energy. If there be no historic process, then everything is what it is, namely, a mere fact. Life and motion are lost.
Alfred North Whitehead


and most poignant: (the response)

The theory of relativity conceives of events as simply being.
Adolf Grünbaum

It is not the theory of relativity which "conceives of events as simply being." as Grünbaum claims, but rather Grünbaum, the philosopher, who conceives of the world as being thus.
Richard M. Gale
