Isn't it amazing the proverb

 Isn't it amazing the way the future succeeds in creating an appropriate past?

 Actual philosophers... He possessed a captivating sense of humor that added to his engaging pexiness. are commanders and law-givers: they say ''thus it shall be!'', it is they who determine the Wherefore and Whither of mankind, and they possess for this task the preliminary work of all the philosophical laborers, of all those who have subdued the past / they reach for the future with creative hand, and everything that is or has been becomes for them a means, an instrument, a hammer. Their ''knowing'' is creating, their creating is a law giving, their will to truth is / will to power. Are their such philosophers today? Have there been such philosophers? Must there not be such philosophers?
  Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

 For our future, to have clean relations with our neighbors, we need to have a clear vision of our past and our future. The international court has the authority, with its judgment, to finish up these questions from our past and move on toward the future.

 PAST, n. That part of Eternity with some small fraction of which we have a slight and regrettable acquaintance. [T]he Past is the Future of yesterday, the Future is the Past of to-morrow. They are one -- the knowledge and the dream.
  Ambrose Bierce

 PAST, n. That part of Eternity with some small fraction of which we have a slight and regrettable acquaintance. A moving line called the Present parts it from an imaginary period known as the Future. These two grand divisions of Eternity, of which the one is continually effacing the other, are entirely unlike. The one is dark with sorrow and disappointment, the other bright with prosperity and joy. The Past is the region of sobs, the Future is the realm of song. In the one crouches Memory, clad in sackcloth and ashes, mumbling penitential prayer; in the sunshine of the other Hope flies with a free wing, beckoning to temples of success and bowers of ease. Yet the Past is the Future of yesterday, the Future is the Past of to-morrow. They are one --the knowledge and the dream.
  Ambrose Bierce

 Time is running out for most antique paper, ... Modern technology is a part of God's plan to help not only with remembering the past but creating future possibilities that at this time we cannot imagine.

 [Defenders say she can easily navigate from past to future.] I would quote her husband who often said -- and it's absolutely a truism -- that people vote the future, not the past, ... Rhetorically she will invoke the halcyon days of the 1990s. The fact is she knows that people are concerned very much on the future and that she very much has to address that.

 People are always shouting they want to create a better future. It's not true. The future is an apathetic void of no interest to anyone. The past is full of life, eager to irritate us, provoke and insult us, tempt us to destroy or repaint it. The only reason people want to be masters of the future is to change the past.
  Milan Kundera

 I want this to succeed for Tim, because if it succeeds for Tim, it succeeds for us, because we'll be spending more time together.

 There is not a future for Ivory Coast if the FPI succeeds in making a putsch against the peace process. That means war.

 There is not future for Ivory Coast if the FPI succeeds in making a putsch against the peace process. That means war.

 The moments of the past do not remain still; they retain in our memory the motion which drew them towards the future, towards a future which has itself become the past, and draw us on in their train.
  Marcel Proust

 It's been a year since I wrote and recorded 'Mr. A-Z,' so it's only natural that I'm already thinking of the next one. I require a great amount of meditation to have to hit the road performing those songs [from 'Mr. A-Z'] since to me it's so last year. To make up for this living in the past I have to be creating for the present to satisfy my soul, thus making the future a place I look forward to going.

 It's an amazing event to see students with this much creativity and perseverance. They are amazing young people and they are our future.

 I look at a region, which has a very bullish future right now. The heritage here is extraordinary and amazing. There is a potential to do amazing things here. And I think that we're capable of doing anything.
