Meditações - Light travels to us from the hands of the clock

Albert Einstein:

That's it! That's the theory of relativity! Light travels to us from the hands of the clock, to tell us the time. But, if we were to travel away from the clock at the speed of light...

Marie Curie:

The hands of the clock would appear to have stopped!

Albert Einstein:

Time would stand still! This moment *would* last forever.

Young Einstein [1988]
