Present Future Quotes (page 8)

Daniel was very like a child in all the parts of his character. He was strongly affected by whatever was present, and apt to forget the absent. He acted on impulse, and too often had reason to be sorry for it; but he hated his sorrow too much to let it teach him wisdom for the future. Elizabeth Gaskell
For the first time, she recognized the symptoms of infatuation which she had felt incipiently as a child, as a girl in her early teens, and later as a young woman. The recognition did not lessen the reality, the poignancy of the revelation by any suggestion or promise of instability. The past was nothing to her; offered no lesson which she was willing to heed. The future was a mystery which she never attempted to penetrate. The present alone was significant; was hers, to torture her as it was... Kate Chopin
But, as Einstein once said, “For we convinced physicists, the distinction between past, present, and future is only an illusion, however persistent.”5 Brian Greene
Marshall McLuhan quote: "We look at the present through a rear view mirror. We match..."
We look at the present through a rear view mirror. We match backwards into the future. Marshall McLuhan
The difference between the student radicals and the Hell's Angels is that the students are rebelling against the past, while the Angels are fighting the future. Their only common ground is their disdain for the present, or the status quo. Hunter S. Thompson
The present moment dies every moment to become the past , is reborn every moment into the future. All experience is now. Now never ends. Deepak Chopra
Thomas S. Monson quote: "Learn from the past, prepare for the future, live in the present."
Learn from the past, prepare for the future, live in the present. Thomas S. Monson
... the river is everywhere at once, at the source and at the mouth, at the waterfall, at the ferry, at the rapids, in the sea, in the mountains, everywhere at once, and that there is only the present time for it, not the shadow of the past, not the shadow of the future. Herman Hesse
A youth is to be regarded with respect. How do we know that his future will not be equal to our present? If he reach the age of forty or fifty, and has not made himself heard of, then indeed he will not be worth being regarded with respect. Confucius
Albert Camus quote: "True generosity toward the future consists in giving..."
True generosity toward the future consists in giving everything to the present. Albert Camus
Hippocrates quote: "Declare the past, diagnose the present, foretell the future."
Declare the past, diagnose the present, foretell the future. Hippocrates
That's all anyone has, and it's always brief, although, of course, some people believe they have a past where they can accumulate things and a future where they will accumulate still more. By the way, speaking of the present moment, do you masturbate a lot? Paulo Coelho
I hear from afar the shouts of that false wisdom which is ever dragging us onwards, counting the present as nothing, and pursuing without pause a future which flies as we pursue, that false wisdom which removes us from our place and never brings us to any other. Jean-Jacques Rousseau
And I will show that there is no imperfection in the present, and can be none in the future, And I will show that whatever happens to anybody it may be turn'd to beautiful results, And I will show that nothing can happen more beautiful than death, And I will thread a thread through my poems that time and events are compact, And that all the things of the universe are perfect miracles, each as profound as any. Walt Whitman
Walt Whitman quote: "The past and the present wilt. I have fill’d them, emptied..."
The past and the present wilt. I have fill’d them, emptied them, And proceed to fill my next fold of the future. Walt Whitman
