We are all ordinary people

Time travelers can use their abilities to meet again after they meet love, and then make choices; they can use their abilities to create miracles in their own work; they can save a lifetime of tragedies for their friends...

As ordinary people, we can only choose to make up for what we have done wrong. We can only regret in the future when we miss out on love. When our best friend encounters despair, we can only give encouragement and weak help... Then time traveler is really happy? Did they really rise to the sky? I don’t think the movie tells us this situation. They also need to make choices when facing the things and people they want to cherish the most. At that time, they fell into deep despair. There is still a need to make a choice, and you need to face the cherished people leaving from your side. They are not the same as us in the trajectory of time.

Our lives are too complicated, life is really not simple, we can't be like time travelers, relying on our own time to find our true love, we can't help our friends get out of the tragedy and help them make a perfect comeback , can not solve a little trouble in life, but these things are not part of life? As the time traveler finally realized, he couldn't bring his dead father back to life, couldn't make his sister forget the experience with the scumbag, and they also began to understand that time travel can bring them some benefits, but they can't let themselves get The true meaning of life is like the only wedding in my life that was not so perfect, but I still choose to keep memories with my wife. Like time travelers, we all have to face a life that is not simple, and we have to experience many tragedies, otherwise our life will not be so dashing and memorable.

About Time quotes

  • [Tim and Mary are in bed]

    Mary: So not such a bad day after all?

    Tim: No. It was pretty good, really. Very good day, actually, as it turns out.

    Mary: Well, that's a relief. Because it had been a very bad day, I thought I might have had to have had sex with you to make up for it.

    [she turns the light out]

    Mary: Goodnight.

    Tim: [he is lying blatantly and Mary knows it] It was a very, very bad day. It went very badly. I got fired from my job. And then I killed a man.

    [she turns the light back on]

    Mary: That is a very bad day.

    Tim: It's terrible.

    Mary: Yeah, the worst day ever. I'm so sorry.

    [they start to make love]

  • [Mary wants another baby]

    Mary: I just thought that maybe it was time for the insurance baby.

    Tim: What?

    Mary: In case one of them is really smart. We don't want the other one to feel stupid their whole life. And if we had a third one then we could have *two* happy dummies. What do you think?

    [Tim realises that once another baby is born, he will never be able to go back to a time before that]

    Tim: [voiceover] It was the toughest decision of my life. Saying "yes" to the future meant saying "goodbye" to my dad - forever.
