I believe the future is only the past again, entered through another gate.
-Arthur Wing Pinero
"The Second Mrs. Tanqueray"
Quotations
Future
The past attracts me, the present frightens me, because the future is death.
-Guy De Maupassant
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 past can't see you, but the future is listening.
-Terri Guillemets
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
The future is always beginning now.
-Mark Strand
"Reasons for Moving"
I wonder why I don't go to bed and go to sleep. But then it would be tomorrow, so I decide that no matter how tired, no matter how incoherent I am, I can skip one hour more of sleep and live.
-Sylvia Plath
One today is worth two tomorrows.
-Benjamin Franklin
Why didn't I learn to treat everything like it was the last time. My greatest regret was how much I believed in the future.
-Jonathan Safran Foer
"Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close"
Life is only the present. And in the present, neither there is room for memories of
the past nor worries of the future. The root cause of all the miseries of life is the
effort to accommodate the past or future in the present.
-Deep Trivedi
