Which statement from Confessions Book XI best exemplifies St. Augustine’s conclusion about how one can truly define time? “…nor will I endure the questions of men, who by a penal disease thirst for more than they can contain, and say, ‘what did God before He made heaven and earth?’ Or, ‘How came it into His mind to make any thing, having never before made any thing?’” “It is in thee, my mind, that I measure times. Interrupt me not, that is, interrupt not thyself with the tumults of thy impressions.” “Before I begin, my expectation is extended over the whole; but when I have begun, how much soever of it I shall separate off into the past, is extended along my memory; thus the life of this action of mine is divided between my memory as to what I have repeated, and expectation as to what I am about to repeat; but "consideration" is present with me,…” “Let them see therefore, that time cannot be without created being, and cease to speak that vanity. May they also be extended towards those things which are before; and understand Thee before all times, the eternal Creator of all times, and that no times be coeternal with Thee, nor any creature, even if there be any creature before all times”
