The Time Machine quotes

  • Dr. Philip Hillyer: Well, the future's already there. It's irrevocable. It cannot be changed.

    George: I wonder... Now that's the most important question to which I hope to find an answer... Can man control his destiny? Can he change the shape of things to come?

  • George: [while time traveling] The centuries rolled by... I put my trust in time, and waited for the rock to wear down around me.
