“Time is the substance I am made of Time is a river that sweeps me along, but I am the river; it is a tiger that devours me, but I am the tiger; it is a fire that consumes me, but I am the fire”
— 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.
