Timothy Spall Quotes

Apparently, some physicists argue that time is curved. I suppose this means that the past is in some way still present.

Time travel is a fantasy we all have. The 'Back to the Future' series really exploits that wish.

The river of time may fork into rivers, in which case you have a parallel reality and so then you can become a time traveler and not have to worry about causing a time paradox.

I really believe that the aliens are us from the future. It seems to me a very plausible reason that explains a lot of phenomena as opposed to green men with one eye from outer space.

Conventionally, one looks at history as something of the past. But after Einstein, who knows what is in the past and what is in the present?

Trust me: you make a movie about time travel, and you know for a fact humans will never travel through time. The paradoxes that come up just from trying to tell a story with time travel really illuminates the fact that it's impossible. It will never happen. We can barely get through a movie that involves time travel.

Time is very weird.

I think the idea of time travel is very seductive.

Time doesn't necessarily happen in chronological order.

Clock measurement is not time itself. In fact, so opposed are they that one could argue the clock is not a synonym, but the opposite of time.

How serious can a movie about time-traveling robots be? You want it to be cool and fun.

Imaginary time is a new dimension, at right angles to ordinary, real time.

One of the most powerful devices is to distort time, to go from human time to atomic time, geologic time. Sometimes you can actually accomplish that, with one unexpected word choice.

It's not clear in physics why you can't see the future.

The simplest way out of the puzzle of time travel is to say that it can't be done. That's very likely the right answer. However, we don't know for sure.

I feel as though maybe our concept of time and space is very limited. Maybe everything is all happening at once, if you know what I mean.

I'm always game for movies based on time travel. Hopefully, someday, I'll be a part of a time travel series of films.

Maybe you could go backwards and forwards at the same time, but it wasn't easy. You had to want to.

The past is a kind of future that has already happened.

If you're making a movie about the effects of time, you kind of have to engage time as the main character.

Once upon a time there was no Time.

Three days: Today, Tomorrow and Yesterday, I know, Yet if the past were cancelled within the here and now, And then the future hidden, I could regain that Day, Which I, before I was, had lived in God's own way.

You've probably all had those kinds of dreams that are like usual life, except that a lot of things are not the same, and you seem to know the future in them. Well, this is because these other worlds where two things can happen spread out from our world like rainbows, and sort of flow into one another-

It's all now you see: tomorrow began yesterday and yesterday won't be over until tomorrow.
