"Time is not a durable thing. . . mankind can wreak havoc by messing with the space-time continuum.

In truth, there are more important issues at stake in this debate...

You can not be here and there at the same time... So there is a value judgement on here vs there. And when it comes to a decision... there is no better time than now. It is true... Now is still the most precious time frame available. It is the only place in history where change can happen. So if you want to make a difference to the world, you have to be here, not there.

Now is the time to act."
