Messianism: Each moment in time presents a unique revolutionary possibility.
Walter Benjamin
'Tis thou thyself that makest Time. And like a clock thy senses run: Do thou but quiet their unrest— The clock is stopped and Time is gone.
Angelus Silesius.
Kant's theory: Time, is only empirically real and does not exist independently among things in themselves.
The conclusion is reached in Time and Free Will (Bergson) that ‘the interval of duration exists only for us and on account of the interpenetration of our conscious states’. Outside ourselves we find only space, and consequently nothing but simultaineities, ‘of which we could not even say that they are objectively successive, since succession can only be thought through comparing the present with the past’.
Timeless Time - . . ."time and space are related in society as is nature and their meanings and manifestations in social practice evolve throughout histories and across cultures. The network society is organised around new forms of time and space: timeless time and the space of flows."
Manuel Castells.
"Time is the medium that binds a man's view of the world with his view of himself. It follows, then, that alterations in man's view of the world and of himself are to an essential degree alterations in his perception of time."
Christoph Wulf.
