Text Quotes
I putter. I nurse old grudges. I fold origami while nursing old grudges. I think about the past. I wonder if there’s any grudges I should start  (Past Quotes) The future doesn’t exist. It hasn’t happened yet. The past doesn’t exist. It has already happened  (Past Quotes) Guide to the world of the dead. When you are certain that the body has left you, feel sad for the good you didn’t get to do; then stop feeling sad and begin your journey to the past. Feel happy for the evil you didn’t get to do, then stop feeling happy and realize that what propels you is chance, which when you were going in the opposite direction seemed to you like order, or necessity  (Past Quotes) A man whose yesterdays rest on his horizon travels forward into his past. The result is that he goes a very long way to nowhere  (Past Quotes) Each of us carries around those growing up places, the institutions, a sort of backdrop, a stage set. So often we act out the present against the backdrop of the past, within a frame of perception that is so familiar, so safe that is is terrifying to risk changing it even when we know our perceptions are distorted, limited, constricted by that old view  (Past Quotes) Everyone sort of lives with their rulers in the past and doesn’t look at coming changes  (Past Quotes) I am intrigued with combining the remnant of memories, fragments of relics and ordinary objects, with the components of technology. It’s a way of delving into the past and reaching into the future simultaneously  (Past Quotes) Yesterday’s success formula is often today’s obsolete dogma... We must continually challenge the past so that we can renew ourselves each day  (Past Quotes) In the past, it was expected that about three years were required to learn a single kata, and usually even an expert of considerable skill would only know three, or at most five, kata  (Past Quotes) As I loosen my grip on the past, as I keep taking one small step after another in the direction I want to go, I discover I’m being supported and guided after all, and that as soon as I’m willing to embrace change, something or someone comes along and shows me how. Magic wasn’t something I had to go in search of; it was here within me, all the time. When hearts are open, when love is flowing, magic happens  (Past Quotes) No one is innocent in the tide of history. Everyone has kings and slaves in his past. Everyone has saints and sinners. We are not to blame for the actions of our ancestors. We can only try to be the best we can, no matter what our heritage, to strive for a better future for all  (Past Quotes) Home is the place you return to when you have finally lost your soul. Home is the place where life is born, not the place of your birth, but the place where you seek rebirth. When you no longer have to remember which tale of your own past is true and which is an invention, when you know that you are an invention, then is the time to seek out your home. Perhaps only when you have come to understand that can you finally reach home  (Past Quotes) It’s too easy, you see, to get trapped in the past. The past is very seductive. People always talk about the mists of time, you know, but really it’s the present that’s in a mist, uncertain. The past is quite clear, and warm, and comforting. That’s why people often get stuck there  (Past Quotes) When you have one foot in the future and the other in the past, you piss on the present  (Past Quotes) I just want to make my last demand in reverence to the work of what has been done by architects of the past. what was, has always been. what is, has always been. and what will be, has always been. such is the nature of beginning  (Past Quotes) In the past, most wars were motivated by the idea of nationhood. Today, however, wars are incited above all using religion as an excuse  (Past Quotes) The past is history; The future is a mystery; This moment is a gift; That is why this moment is called the present; Enjoy it  (Past Quotes) We experience life as a continuity, and only after it falls away, after it becomes the past, do we see its discontinuities. The past, if there is such a thing, is mostly empty space, great expanses of nothing, in which significant persons and events float  (Past Quotes) I get photographers hiding in my bushes. We’re way past autographs. We’re into being stalked and followed  (Past Quotes) To denounce does not free the self from what it hates, any more than ignoring the past shuts off its influence  (Past Quotes) And be grateful. Our scars have the power to remind us that the past was real  (Past Quotes) Talking about the past is like a cat’s trying to explain climbing down a ladder  (Past Quotes) Each period of a civilisation creates an art that is specific in it and which we will never see reborn. To try and revive the principles of art of past centuries can lead only to the production of stillborn works  (Past Quotes) Having lost our present and our future, we had of necessity to bend all our endeavors to the past, which no one could take from us if only we were vigilant enough  (Past Quotes) With a tear for the dark past, turn we then to the dazzling future, and, veiling our eyes, press forward. The long and weary winter of the race is ended. Its summer has begun. Humanity has burst the chrysalis. The heavens are before it  (Past Quotes) If we trace the history of any nation backwards into the past, we come at last to a period of myths and traditions which eventually fade away into impenetrable darkness  (Past Quotes) I detest my past, and anyone else’s. I detest resignation, patience, professional heroism and obligatory beautiful feelings. I also detest the decorative arts, folklore, advertising, voices making announcements, aerodynamism, boy scouts, the smell of moth balls, events of the moment, and drunken people  (Past Quotes) Most people have learned to live in the moment. The argument goes that if the past has uncertain effect on the present, there is no need to dwell on the past. And if the present has little effect on the future, present actions need not be weighed for their consequence. Rather, each act is an island in time, to be judged on its own... It is a world of impulse. It is a world of sincerity. It is a world in which every word spoken speaks just to that moment, every glance given has only one meaning  (Past Quotes) I’m focussing on what I haven’t attained, not what I have. A lot has come to me early. I don’t want to get consumed with that. Winners live in the present tense. People who come up short are consumed with future or past. I want to be living in the now. My goal is to play one full game in the now, but I haven’t even gotten past the first inning yet. I start thinking about where my mom is or if my dogs have been fed. The average human has 2,000 thoughts a day. The really accomplished have 1,500 because you can focus longer. I need to learn how to focus longer  (Past Quotes) Whatever we do must be in accord with human nature. We cannot drive people; we must direct their development. The general policy of the past has been to drive; but the era of force must give way to the era of knowledge, and the policy of the future will be to teach and lead, to the advantage of all concerned  (Past Quotes)
