You cannot see the past that did not happen any more than you can foresee the future.
If time travel were possible, you still wouldn't be able to change the past - it's already happened!
The future is foretold from the past and the future is only possible because of the past. Without past and future, the present is partial. All time is eternally present and so all time is ours. There is no sense in forgetting and every sense in dreaming. Thus the present is made rich.
The past is a foreign country: they do things differently there.
The future ain't what it used to be.
We all have our time machines, don't we. Those that take us back are memories...And those that carry us forward, are dreams.
'Kung Fury!' I mean, Jesus, that thing is amazing.
I have experimental evidence that time travel is not possible.
Science fiction writers foresee the inevitable.
You can’t repeat the past.” “Can’t repeat the past?” he cried incredulously. “Why of course you can!
History is more interesting than most people think.
Though God cannot alter the past, historians can.
The past is a kind of future that has already happened.
If you came from the future and you arrived here, what would you be like? Would your immune system be depressed from that travel? Would you be well? Would you be ill? Would you be affected by micro-organisms of the time period and be hiding out in a basement? How would it all work, practically?
I've always been a fan of science fiction. My family, we all used to watch 'Star Trek' together, which is kind of a nerdy family activity.
I lived in Judea eighteen hundred years ago, but I never knew that there was such a one as Christ among my contemporaries.
'Fringe' is one of my favorite television shows, from its inception. I absolutely love all of the science fiction of it, the mystery of it, and the science in it.
Ever since 'The Goldbergs' began, one of my dreams was to write a homage to 'Highlander.'
I wouldn't know a space-time continuum or warp core breach if they got into bed with me.
In 1955, when I'd write a science-fiction novel, I'd set it in the year 2000. I realised around 1977 that, 'My God, it's getting exactly like those novels we used to write in the 1950s!' Everything's just turning out to be real.
I do like sci-fi, absolutely. I've watched everything from 'Star Trek' to 'Star Wars' to 'Terminator' - the list goes on and on.
Time travel and teleportation will have to wait. It may take centuries to master these technology. But within the coming decades, we will understand dark matter, perhaps test string theory, find planets which can harbor life, and maybe have Brain 2.0, i.e. our consciousness on a disk which will survive even after we die.
If Attila the Hun were alive today, he'd be a drama critic.
Terry Gilliam has directed some of the best examples of what I like to see in a film - one of them being 'Baron Munchausen.'
A lot of cinematic influences on 'Descender' - Kubrick for sure. '2001: A Space Odyssey' is my favorite movie. It has been since I was 12. I just love that film.
