Young men speak about the future because they have no past, and old men speak of the past because they have no future.
Boyd K. PackerStichwörter: humor past future age
Olvidar un hecho, es modificar el pasado.

I have realized that the past and future are real illusions, that they exist in the present, which is what there is and all there is.
Alan W. WattsStichwörter: past future present time illusion
A safe but sometimes chilly way of recalling the past is to force open a crammed drawer. If you are searching for anything in particular you don't find it, but something falls out at the back that is often more interesting.
J.M. BarrieStichwörter: past memory rediscovery
When we put things off until some future-probably mythical-Laterland, we drag the past into the future. The burden of yesterday's incompletions is a heavy load to carry. Don't carry it.
Peter McWilliamsStichwörter: life past future self incomplete

...the dreamlike, bombastic wish to stand once again at that point in my life and be able to take a completely different direction than the one that has made me who I am now... To sit once more on the warm moss and hold the cap - it's the absurd wish to go back behind myself in time and take myself - the only marked by events - along on this journey.
Pascal MercierA generation which ignores history has no past — and no future.

I wish I could leave you certain of the images in my mind, because they are so beautiful that I hate to think they will be extinguished when I am. Well, but again, this life has its own mortal loveliness. And memory is not strictly mortal in its nature, either. It is a strange thing, after all, to be able to return to a moment, when it can hardly be said to have any reality at all, even in its passing. A moment is such a slight thing. I mean, that its abiding is a most gracious reprieve.
Marilynne RobinsonStichwörter: past memory mortality
The good news is that you may have created my past and screwed up my present, but you have no control over my future. You don't know me at all.
