In "The Time Machine," H.G. Wells discusses the concept of dimensions, emphasizing that every physical object must possess length, breadth, thickness, and duration. He suggests that while we typically perceive only the three spatial dimensions due to our physical limitations, it is essential to acknowledge the fourth dimension, which is Time.

This idea challenges our understanding of reality by proposing that time is just as critical as the spatial dimensions in defining existence. Wells invites readers to consider a broader view of reality, where time and space are intertwined, fundamentally altering how we perceive movement and existence in the universe.
