If you are a photon, then neither time or motion exist. At the speed of light, time stops. The photon is everywhere at once.
To say Time exists is true. To say Time does not exist is also True. It is a matter of perspective. It depends on which side of the Relativity fence, General or Special, that you are sitting on at the time you make your observation.

This is of course text-book stuff. All that said, it turns out that Albert didn't have it completely correct. By his own equations, time actually does exist, even for the photon.
The generally accepted SR concept is that the faster you go, the slower time moves and the more massive you become until, at the speed of light, time stops and mass becomes infinite. This is almost but not exactly correct.
(Utilizing the equation e=mc^2) A craft moving at the speed of light would still experience time relative to a rest-point observer at the rate of 1/c.
IE: if e=mc^2 then 1/c=mc/e.
So, time exists, even at the speed of light.
