"Time itself is being, he wrote, and all being is time...In essence, everything in the entire universe is linked with each other as moments in time, continuous and SEPARATE"(30).
This quote embodies what the whole book is about. A time being is something that lives in time, this accounts for everything. Those in the past, future and present are all time beings. This theory is present in the interactions between the two main characters of the book. They communicate through time, connected to one another due to the lack of time's credence to humankind's concept of it. This link is seen in our world too. Everyday we are influenced by the past and continue to change the present and future. We are all time beings.
