Past


 The past is our definition. We may strive, with good reason, to escape it, or to escape what is bad in it, but we will escape it only by adding something better to it.

 The past may not repeat itself, but it sure does rhyme
  Mark Twain

 The past went that-a-way. When faced with a totally new situation, we tend always to attach ourselves to the objects, to the flavor of the most recent past. We look at the present through a rear view mirror. We march backwards into the future.
  Marshall McLuhan

 The past, with its pleasures, its rewards, its foolishness, its punishments, is there for each of us forever, and it should be.
  Lillian Hellman

 The present is never our goal: the past and present are our means: the future alone is our goal. Thus, we never live but we hope to live; and always hoping to be happy, it is inevitable that we will never be so.
  Blaise Pascal

 The true past departs not, no truth or goodness realized by man ever dies, or can die; but all is still here, and, recognized or not, lives and works through endless change.
  Thomas Carlyle

 The years between fifty and seventy are the hardest. You are always being asked to do things, and yet you are not decrepit enough to turn them down.
  T.S. Eliot

 To have common glories in the past, a common will in the present; to have done great things together; to wish to do greater; these are the essential conditions which make up a people
  Ernest Renan

 To what a degree the same past can leave different marks - and especially admit of different interpretations.
  Andre Gide

 We are tomorrow's past.
  Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

 We cannot change our past. We can not change the fact that people act in a certain way. We can not change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.
  Charles R. Swindoll

 We must welcome the future, remembering that soon it will be the past; and we must respect the past, remembering that it was once all that was humanly possible
  George Santayana

 We ought not to look back, unless it is to derive useful lessons from past errors and for the purpose of profiting by dear bought experience
  George Washington

 What is past is prologue.
  William Shakespeare

 What you need to know about the past is that no matter what has happened, it has all worked together to bring you to this very moment. And this is the moment you can choose to make everything new. Right now.
  Blaise Pascal
