I wouldn't bother trying to kill Hitler because I already know I failed.

e: yeah, the two above posts
No links to any books, but basically it's like this
All of spacetime was released by the big bang, and so the universe is a set that contains everything. All of time is already in existence and is inextricably linked to the three dimensional space we live in. We perceive time as linear because we cannot see its whole, only how one appears to change as it moves through the other. But all of it still already exists, and should time travel at some point be possible, then everything, as it is, already played out (in our linear sense of things) with those things happening. poo poo doesn't branch off and create new timelines because time doesn't work that way.
If that makes any sense. It's too early for me to piece together all my half thoughts on how the universe works
To put it another way, why I said I knew I'd fail at killing Hitler: because he wasn't killed.
You can't change the past, because everything that happened in the past already happened. Or, you already tried to kill Hitler, and you failed. We know everyone failed at trying to kill Hitler because he survived until he took his own life. There was never a past where you weren't there to try to kill Hitler.
