What Is Time?
What is time? The shadow on the dial, the striking of the clock, the running of the sand, day and night, summer and winter, months, years, centuries－these are but arbitrary and outward signs, the measure of Time, not Time itself. Time is the Life of the soul.
…..
Look not mournfully into the past. It comes not back again. Wisely improve the Present. It is yours. Go forth to meet the shadowy Future, without fear, and with a mainly heart.
－Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
時間是甚麼？
時間是甚麼？是計時刻盤上的影子、報時鐘的聲響、沙漏的細流，白天和黑夜、冬至夏來、還是歲月、世紀？這些都只不過是人為的表面信號，是對時間的測定方法，而不是時間本身。時間，是靈魂的生命。
…..
不要對著過去悲哀，過去不會再回來。聰明的做法是改善現在，現在才屬於你。要懷著一顆勇敢、豁達的心，去迎接那朦朧的未來。
－亨利 朗費羅
