For Kate and Ned.
I am convinced, but cannot prove that time does not exist.
I am convinced that time and space are… convenient macroscopic approximations, flimsy but illusory and insufficient screens that our minds use to organize our reality.
I am convinced that time is an artifact of the approximation in which we disregard the large majority of the degrees of freedom of reality.
-Carlo Rovelli, Physicist, Institute Universitaire de France
Love you, Justine.
