“time has two aspects”

assignment set by elena.


“Time has two aspects. There is the arrow, the running river, without which there is no change, no progress, or direction, or creation. And then there is the circle or the cycle, without which there is chaos, meaningless succession of instants, a world without clocks or seasons or promises” – Ursula K Le Guin, The Dispossessed
