Raffi : [as the personification of Time] Time, they say you heal all wounds, but they don't talk about how you destroy all that's good in the world, how you turn beauty into ash. Now that's some bullshit, Howard. Now, if love is creation and death is destruction, I'm just the terrain in between. You don't understand time, no one understands time. Einstein was close when he said I was just an illusion.

Claire : What was that thing you said about Einstein in there?
Raffi : Einstein called time a stubbornly persistant illusion.
Claire : Whats that even mean
Raffi : Time doesn't go from January to December, or from noon to midnight. You know we all just make it that way in our heads.
Claire : That's absurd! Try telling that to a person who's an hour late to a wedding, or that's just been sentenced to 20 years in jail.
Raffi : Or someone fighting the baby clock.
