"El tiempo es la sustancia de la que estoy hecho El tiempo es un río que me arrastra, pero yo soy el río; es un tigre que me devora, pero yo soy el tigre; es un fuego que me consume, pero yo soy el fuego"
— Jorge Luis Borges
Simplified Meaning:
Our lives are made of time. Time carries us forward, but we are also a part of time. It can seem like time is powerful and can control us, but we also have that power within us.
