"Time is not a thing, thus nothing which is, and yet it remains constant in its passing away without being something temporal like the beings in time"
- Martin Heidegger
About this Quote
In this quote, Martin Heidegger recommends that time can not be defined as a physical item or entity, however rather is consistent and changeless even as occasions and beings within time change. He argues that time is not a short-term construct like the things that exist within it, but rather something that endures beyond any specific minute.
