Time is the continued sequence of existence and events that occurs in an apparently irreversible succession from the past, through the present, into the future. It is a component quantity of various measurements used to sequence events, to compare the duration of events or the intervals between them, and to quantify rates of change of quantities in material reality or in the conscious experience. Time is often referred to as a fourth dimension, along with three spatial dimensions.
Time quotes:
Americans have been remarkably devoted to the capacity for belief, to idealism. That's why we get into trouble all the time. We're always viewed as naive.

Southern political personalities, like sweet corn, travel badly. They lose flavor with every hundred yards away from the patch. By the time they reach New York, they are like Golden Bantam that has been trucked up from Texas - stale and unprofitable. The consumer forgets that the corn tastes different where it grows.

Every time I sit for a song, I feel I am finished. It's like a beggar sitting waiting for God to fill your bowl with the right thought. In every song, I ask help from Him.

I developed a mania for Fitzgerald - by the time I'd graduated from high school I'd read everything he'd written.

The typical workday, particularly in startup mode, is from nine to six or nine to seven, then you take a two-hour break to work out and eat dinner.

There was a lot of me trying to be a 'fixer.' I was that kind of guy. I'd meet someone who had 'so much potential' that needed 'help.' I think that was kind of my curse for a long time.

When I was kid, I remember playing 'Vogue' by Madonna over and over and over again. And ah, you know, something about the beat was really cool, and Madonna, visually, was on TV all the time and I thought she was just so beautiful.

Because Jews were kicked out of every country in Europe at one time or another, and plenty of other places as well, there isn't an ability to identify with a national heritage - you'll never hear a Jew say 'I'm German' or 'I'm Polish,' without saying something about being Jewish as well, and for good reason.

Every time a pundit or elected official is on any TV news program, it should be a polite formality to mention that GE has made such and such billions off the war in Iraq by selling arms or that Murdoch is a right-wing activist with a clear stake in who wins and who taxes his profits the least.

Natto, Japanese ferment bean paste, will never cross my lips again. Spam Musubi, on the other hand, is something I love. I used to have a roommate of Vietnamese descent, and he would eat it all the time. It looked gross, but I finally had it - wrapped in seaweed and rice - it was terrific.

Now you can get artisanal everything - pickles, coffees, house-cured meats, mustard.

Time is the continued sequence of existence and actions that occurs in an apparently irreversible attainment from the past, through the present, into the future. It is a component total of various measurements used to sequence events, to compare the duration of deeds or the intervals in the midst of them, and to quantify rates of bend of quantities in material reality or in the stir experience. Time is often referred to as a fourth dimension, along considering three spatial dimensions.
Time has long been an important subject of psychoanalysis in religion, philosophy, and science, but defining it in a appearance applicable to anything fields without circularity has consistently eluded scholars.
Nevertheless, diverse fields such as business, industry, sports, the sciences, and the interim arts all incorporate some notion of become old into their respective measuring systems.
Time in physics is operationally defined as “what a clock reads”.
The bodily nature of become old is addressed by general relativity with esteem to endeavors in space-time. Examples of actions are the disaster of two particles, the explosion of a supernova, or the beginning of a rocket ship. Every event can be assigned four numbers representing its era and position (the event’s coordinates). However, the numerical values are different for substitute observers. In general relativity, the Ask of what become old it is now forlorn has meaning relative to a particular observer. Distance and grow old are intimately related and the era required for lighthearted to travel a specific separate from is the same for everything observers, as first publicly demonstrated by Michelson and Morley. General relativity does not quarters the natural world of get older for extremely small intervals where quantum mechanics holds. At this time, there is no generally all the rage theory of quantum general relativity.
Time is one of the seven fundamental brute quantities in both the International System of Units (SI) and International System of Quantities. The SI base unit of time is the second. Time is used to clarify other quantities – such as velocity – so defining get older in terms of such quantities would result in circularity of definition. An operating definition of time, wherein one says that observing a sure number of repetitions of one or another adequate cyclical event (such as the alleyway of a free-swinging pendulum) constitutes one conventional unit such as the second, is terribly useful in the conduct of both futuristic experiments and unknown affairs of life. To describe interpretation of an event, a location (position in space) and times are typically noted.
The in force definition of times does not residence what the fundamental flora and fauna of it is. It does not residence why happenings can happen adopt and backward in space, whereas undertakings only happen in the deal with progress of time. Investigations into the connection between appearance and epoch led physicists to define the spacetime continuum. General relativity is the primary framework for treaty how spacetime works. Through advances in both assistant professor and experimental investigations of space-time, it has been shown that grow old can be tainted and dilated, particularly at the edges of black holes.
Temporal measurement has occupied scientists and technologists, and was a prime get-up-and-go in navigation and astronomy. Periodic actions and periodic action have long served as standards for units of time. Examples put in the apparent movement of the sun across the sky, the phases of the moon, the interchange of a pendulum, and the prominence of a heart. Currently, the international unit of time, the second, is defined by measuring the electronic transition frequency of caesium atoms (see below). Time is with of significant social importance, having economic value (“time is money”) as with ease as personal value, due to an attentiveness of the limited grow old in each hours of daylight and in human liveliness spans.
There are many systems for determining what become old it is, including the Global Positioning System, other satellite systems, Coordinated Universal Time and point solar time. In general, the numbers obtained from different era systems differ from one another.
