Time Enough
"Time Enough" (alternate title: "Enough Time") is a science fiction short story written by Damon Knight. It first appeared in the July 1960 issue of ''Amazing'' magazine and has since been reprinted twice, in ''Far Out'' (1961) and ''The Best of Damon Knight'' (1976).〔(Index to Science Fiction Anthologies and Collections )〕 == Synopsis == A psychiatrist of the future (1978) treats a young man, using a machine that causes him to relive an embarrassing incident from his childhood. The psychiatrist describes the treatment as follows:
"The past can be altered. The scholar can take his exam over again, the lover can propose once more, the words that were thought of too late can be spoken...It's like a game of cards. If you don't like the hand that is dealt to you, you can take another, and after that, another..."
At the end of the story, having failed once again to resolve the childhood incident in a satisfactory way, the client leaves, with the words, "There's always tomorrow, isn't there?"
