Quote by Leo Tolstoy
English (Source)
I thought that at the root of the fact that life is illusory is what we call movement. Fundamental to illusion is movement. Movement presupposes the illusion of time and space. Time, as I said, is the ability to imagine two objects in one and the same place. Space is the ability to imagine two objects at the same time. Movement is the ability to imagine objects moving from one place to another. The number of objects, however, both for the infinitely small and for the infinitely large, cannot be imagined other than infinity. And therefore the number of passages of objects from some places to others cannot be imagined other than infinity.
