John Fowles - Time in itself, absolutely, does not exist; it is always...

Time in itself, absolutely, does not exist; it is always relative to some observer or some object. Without a clock I say 'I do not know the time'. Without matter time itself is unknowable. Time is a function of matter; and matter therefore is the clock that makes infinity real.
