27. Natural Reality / D. Time / 1. Nature of Time / b. Relative time

4189	Time may be defined as the possibility of mutually exclusive conditions of the same thing [Schopenhauer]
	Full Idea: Time may be defined as the possibility of mutually exclusive conditions of the same thing.
	From: Arthur Schopenhauer (Abstract of 'The Fourfold Root' [1813], Ch.IV)
	A reaction: An off-beat philosophical view of the question. Sounds more like a consequence of time than its essential nature.
