Quotations
Future
One today is worth two tomorrows.
-Benjamin Franklin
Tomorrow I may see (or be persuaded of) errors in my present thinking, but today I have to do the best I can.
-Francis Crick
"Astonishing Hypothesis: The Scientific Search for the Soul"
The entire past of a person is like a dustbin. Whenever one puts his hand in and
tries to take anything out, no matter what it is, it will surely stink. Similarly, all his
aspirations for future resemble the desire to fly like a bird, whenever he will try,
he is bound to fall hard and hit the ground.
-Deep Trivedi
Never let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present.
-Marcus Aurelius
The future is always beginning now.
-Mark Strand
"Reasons for Moving"
Pile up too many tomorrows and you'll find that you've collected nothing but a bunch of empty yesterdays.
-Meredith Wilson
Map out your future, but do it in pencil.
-Jon Bon Jovi
Do not worry about tomorrow, it will have enough worries of its own. There is no need to add to the troubles each day brings.
-Jesus Christ
The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the past better than it was, the present worse than it is, and the future less resolved than it will be.
-Marcel Pagnol
