There's no way you can get the past right. You can pretend. You can delude yourself, but you can't re-create what's over.
Chuck PalahniukTags: past
Me and you, we got more yesterday than anybody. We need some kind of tomorrow.
Toni MorrisonThe past is dead and buried. But I know now that buried things have a way of rising to the surface when one least expects them to.
Dan SimmonsYou shouldn’t never regret something that made you smile

Memory, therefore, not simply as the resurrection of one’s private past, but an immersion in the past of others, which is to say: history - which one both participates in and is a witness to, is a part of and apart from. Everything, therefore, is present in his mind at once, as if each element were reflecting the light of all the others, and at the same time emitting its own unique and unquenchable radiance.
Paul AusterIn magic - and in life - there is only the present moment, the now. You can't measure time the way you measure the distance between two points. 'Time' doesn't pass. We human beings have enormous difficulty in focusing on the present; we're always thinking about what we did, about how we could have done it better, about the consequences of our actions, and about why we didn't act as we should have. Or else we think about the future, about what we're going to do tomorrow, what precautions we should take, what dangers await us around the next corner, how to avoid what we don't want and how to get what we have always dreamed of.

The opposite of a correct statement is an incorrect statement. The opposite of a profound truth is another profound truth (Niels Bohr)." By this, he means that we require a larger reading of the human past, of our relations with each other, the universe and God, a retelling of our older tales to encompass many truths and to let us grow with change.

Those who have hurt you in the past cannot continue to hurt you now unless you hold on to the pain through resentment.

No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path.

London has the trick of making its past, its long indelible past, always a part of its present. And for that reason it will always have meaning for the future, because of all it can teach about disaster, survival, and redemption. It is all there in the streets. It is all there in the books.
