Quotes by Paul Davies in Time One

Nothing in known physics corresponds to the passage of time. … is there a key quality of time that science has not yet identified?

[I]t feels as though time flows inexorably on. But that is an illusion.

[T]hat is the founding assumption of science―that there is a real world out there that we can make sense of.

Until we have a firm understanding of the flow of time, or incontrovertible evidence that it is indeed an illusion, then we will not know who we are, or what part we are playing in the great cosmic drama.
