Jose Canseco Quotes

I find the whole time travel question very unsettling if you take it to its logical extension. I think it might eventually be possible, but then what happens?

Trust me: you make a movie about time travel, and you know for a fact humans will never travel through time. The paradoxes that come up just from trying to tell a story with time travel really illuminates the fact that it's impossible. It will never happen. We can barely get through a movie that involves time travel.

The bottom line is that time travel is allowed by the laws of physics.

The simplest way out of the puzzle of time travel is to say that it can't be done. That's very likely the right answer. However, we don't know for sure.

I've always been a big fan of time travel, and I'm very into the notion that some day we'll be able to do it. Beam me up!

Time travel offends our sense of cause and effect - but maybe the universe doesn't insist on cause and effect.

Time travel is such a magic concept.

When you look at the calculation, it's amazing that every time you try to prove or disprove time travel, you've pushed Einstein's theory to the very limits where quantum effects must dominate. That's telling us that you really need a theory of everything to resolve this question. And the only candidate is string theory.

I like science fiction, I like fantasy, I like time travel, so I had this idea: What if you had a phone that could call into the past?

Originally, the burden of proof was on physicists to prove that time travel was possible. Now the burden of proof is on physicists to prove there must be a law forbidding time travel.

If time travel is possible, where are the tourists from the future?

Life is full of little surprises. Time travel is full of big ones.

Once confined to fantasy and science fiction, time travel is now simply an engineering problem.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, time travel's a nightmare. Don't go down that path.

People who think about time travel stories sometimes think that going back in time would be fun because you would have all the information you needed to be much more astute than the people there, when the truth is of course you wouldn't.

Travel at faster than the speed of light certainly can have dramatic implications that are difficult to understand, such as time travel.

I really believe that the aliens are us from the future. It seems to me a very plausible reason that explains a lot of phenomena as opposed to green men with one eye from outer space.

Time travel was once considered scientific heresy, and I used to avoid talking about it for fear of being labelled a 'crank.'

Time travel used to be thought of as just science fiction, but Einstein's general theory of relativity allows for the possibility that we could warp space-time so much that you could go off in a rocket and return before you set out.

I put instant coffee in a microwave oven and almost went back in time.

If time travel were possible, you still wouldn't be able to change the past - it's already happened!

Once the notion of time travel starts to come naturally to the human mind, it is supremely easy to assimilate it into our mode of thinking.

Thinking about time travel may seem like something humans have been doing since the first caveman dropped the first rock on his foot. But, even to begin to imagine the possibility of time travel, your mind must be able to wrap itself around the notion of a past and a future.

Time travel is a wonderful thing, isn't it?

Einstein theorized that time travel was possible, but he was looking at it as unidirectional, going forward. Traveling into the past is much more problematic, as countless stories have demonstrated!
