Text Quotes
We are the heirs of a past of rope, fire, and murder. I for one am not ashamed of this past. My shame is for those who became so inhuman that they could inflict this torture upon us  (His Past Quotes) Devotion is like the candle which Michael Angelo used to take in his pasteboard cap, so as not to throw his shadow upon the work in which he was engaged  (His Past Quotes) What man of us has never felt, walking through the twilight or writing down a date from his past, that he has lost something infinite?  (His Past Quotes) I was looking for what was coming from a man’s soul and a man’s conviction. I didn’t care about his past. If it was innate and natural and felt good to him and it communicated  (His Past Quotes) His past was fairly blameless; few men could read the rolls of their life with less apprehension; yet he was humbled to the dust by the many ill things he had done, and raised up again into sober and fearful gratitude by the many he had come so near to doing, yet avoided  (His Past Quotes) A man or a race either if he’s any good can survive his past without even needing to escape from it and not because of the high quite often only too rhetorical rhetoric of humanity but for the simple indubitable practical reason of his future: that capacity to survive and absorb and endure and still be steadfast  (His Past Quotes) The poet’s, the writer’s, duty is to write about these things. It is his privilege to help man endure by lifting his heart, by reminding him of the courage and honor and hope and pride and compassion and pity and sacrifice which have been the glory of his past. The poet’s voice need not merely be the record of man, it can be one of the props, the pillars to help him endure and prevail  (His Past Quotes) A man who has broken with his past feels a different man. He will not feel it a shame to confess his past wrongs, for the simple reason that these wrongs do not touch him at all  (His Past Quotes) Since we do not take a man on his past history, we do not refuse him because of his past history. I never met a man who was thoroughly bad. There is always some good in him if he gets a chance  (His Past Quotes) We each have been betrayed. Let yourself picture and remember the many ways this is true. Feel the sorrow you have carried from this past. Now sense that you can release this burden of pain by gradually extending forgiveness as your heart is ready  (His Past Quotes) A man’s memory may almost become the art of continually varying and misrepresenting his past, according to his interest in the present  (His Past Quotes) What a man has made himself he will be; his state is the result of his past life, and his heaven or hell is in himself  (His Past Quotes) Because men really respect only that which was founded of old and has developed slowly, he who wants to live on after his death must take care not only of his posterity but even more of his past  (His Past Quotes) Each has his past shut in him like the leaves of a book known to him by his heart, and his friends can only read the title  (His Past Quotes) Man often thinks of either his past or his future and in the mean time today passes like a fast train, disappearing forever on the horizon of life!  (His Past Quotes) A man who denies his past is a man who truly denies himself a future, for he refuses to know himself, and to deny knowledge of oneself is to stumble through life as handicapped as the blind mute  (His Past Quotes) There is no surer or more illuminating way of reading a man’s character, and perhaps a little of his past history, than by observing the contexts in which he prefers to use certain words  (His Past Quotes) I thought long and hard about my future this past year and during the offseason, and I’ve decided 2015 will be the last time I compete for a championship  (His Past Quotes) Books are not men and yet they are alive. They are man’s memory and his aspiration, the link between his present and his past, the tools he builds with  (His Past Quotes)
