“Time is endless." (1957)

From the June 1957 issue of the Socialist Standard

  "It always happens thus: the assimilation of great and new ideas is always a slow and gradual process; there is no haste either here or in any other department of Nature. "Die zeit ist unendlich lang.” * Steadily the forces work, sometimes seeming to accomplish nothing: sometimes even the motion appears retrograde, but in the long run the destined end is reached, and the course, whether of a planet or of men’s thoughts about the universe, is permanently altered."

(Pioneers of Science, Oliver Lodge: Macmillan, 1928).
