Time cannot be caught in a bottle. Only evidence of time.
Given enough time, the evidence of time will become dust, and thus dust would be poured out.
As in:
the sands of time
wash clean my soul,
i live forever,
i am me.
And when I die,
forever ends.

time is infinite, unless its aged in a whiskey barrel, then it's timeless.

remember the movie IQ...
there is no such thing as time. If there was, what is the exact time right now. You cant tell me because that time is now moved into the past.
The quote from the movie goes something like that.. i cant remember it all. Great movie though. :)

To know what comes out, you have to know what goes in. From St. Augustine:
For what is time? Who can easily and briefly explain it? Who even in thought can comprehend it, even to the pronouncing of a word concerning it? But what in speaking do we refer to more familiarly and knowingly than time? And certainly we understand when we speak of it; we understand also when we hear it spoken of by another. What, then, is time? If no one ask of me, I know; if I wish to explain to him who asks, I know not. Yet I say with confidence, that I know that if nothing passed away, there would not be past time; and if nothing were coming, there would not be future time; and if nothing were, there would not be present time. Those two times, therefore, past and future, how are they, when even the past now is not; and the future is not as yet? But should the present be always present, and should it not pass into time past, time truly it could not be, but eternity. If, then, time present -- if it be time -- only comes into existence because it passes into time past, how do we say that even this is, whose cause of being is that it shall not be -- namely, so that we cannot truly say that time is, unless because it tends not to be? |

Yeah, took a long time to read, and really did not answer the question, as simple as it is.
