+"We never experience things in complete isolation, which would be expected if absolute space and time were really operative in the world. Rather, we experience a conglomerate of things, and out of these things we remember with some degree of clarity those that have impressed themselves upon our emotions and personality. The vast majority of our experiences consist of infinitely complex situations that combine all elements of our environment. Common people, poets, and painters have always understood this aspect of human experience, but only recently have scientists and philosophers rediscovered it and begun to approach more closely the world in which we live."
