Source: WordNetThe Law of Time and Chaos: In a process, the time interval between salient events (that is, events that change the nature of the process, or significantly affect the future of the process) expands of contracts along with the amount of chaos. Ray Kurzweil
The Law of Accelerating Returns: As order exponentially increases, time exponentially speeds up (that is, the time interval between salient events grows shorter as time passes). The Law... applies specifically to evolutionary processes. Ray Kurzweil
[T]ime is much more elastic than our intuition of this rigid passage... The time interval between one point and another... depends on where you are. Carlo Rovelli
