exists independent of its appearances. Our perception of time also rests on a mistaken apprehension of reality. What in fact is the past? The past is not a reality; it's just a concept.

The present is that elusive moment between what no longer exists and what has not yet happened. — Dalai Lama XIV

Change does happen in the political process. — Madeleine M. Kunin
