Of all obstacles to a thoroughly penetrating account of existence, none looms up more dismayingly than "time.” Explain time? Not without explaining existence. Explain existence? Not without explaining time. To uncover the deep and hidden connection between time and existence, to close on itself our quartet of questions, is a task for the future. (John Archibald Wheeler)
