We are, perhaps, uniquely among the Earth's creatures, the worrying animal. We worry away our lives, fearing the future, discontent with the present, unable to take in the idea of dying, unable to sit still (The Present Quotes)
If the television craze continues with the present level of programs, we are destined to have a nation of morons (The Present Quotes)
A novelist is, like all mortals, more fully at home on the surface of the present than in the ooze of the past (The Present Quotes)
Peace and abstinence from European interferences are our objects, and so will continue while the present order of things in America remain uninterrupted (The Present Quotes)
I do not want to foresee the future. I am concerned with taking care of the present. God has given me no control over the moment following (The Present Quotes)
Life is divided into three terms - that which was, which is, and which will be. Let us learn from the past to profit by the present, and from the present to live better in the future (The Present Quotes)
The past always seems somehow more golden, more serious, than the present. We tend to forget the partisanship of yesteryear, preferring to re-imagine our history as a sure and steady march toward greatness (The Present Quotes)
The path we have chosen for the present is full of hazards, as all paths are. The cost of freedom is always high, but Americans have always paid it. And one path we shall never choose, and that is the path of surrender, or submission (The Present Quotes)
Conservatism discards prescription, shrinks from principle, disavows progress; having rejected all respect for antiquity, it offers no redress for the present, and makes no preparation for the future (The Present Quotes)
So after the Lewinsky scandal, everything changed, and we moved from using the Bible to address the moral issues of our time, which were social, to moral issues of our time that were very personal. I have continued that relationship up until the present (The Present Quotes)
The pleasure we derive from the representation of the present is due, not only to the beauty it can be clothed in, but also to its essential quality of being the present (The Present Quotes)
We must respect the past, and mistrust the present, if we wish to provide for the safety of the future (The Present Quotes)
The only link between literature and the drama left to us in England at the present moment is the bill of the play (The Present Quotes)
He to whom the present is the only thing that is present, knows nothing of the age in which he lives (The Present Quotes)
There is something tragic about the enormous number of young men there are in England at the present moment who start life with perfect profiles, and end by adopting some useful profession (The Present Quotes)
Movies have to handle time very efficiently. They're about stringing scenes together in the present. Novels aren't necessarily about that (The Present Quotes)
When we come into the present, we begin to feel the life around us again, but we also encounter whatever we have been avoiding. We must have the courage to face whatever is present - our pain, our desires, our grief, our loss, our secret hopes our love - everything that moves us most deeply (The Present Quotes)
The nature of human beings never changes; it is immutable. The present generation of children and the present generation of young adults from the age of thirteen to eighteen is, therefore, no different from that of their great great grandparents. Political fads come and go; theories rise and fall; the scientific "truth" of today becomes the discarded error of tomorrow. Man's ideas change, but not his inherent nature. That remains (The Present Quotes)
The vanishing, volatile froth of the present which any shadow will alter, any thought blow away, any event annihilate, is every moment converted into the Adamantine Record of the Past (The Present Quotes)
It's hardly possible to overstate the value, in the present state of human improvement, of placing human beings in contact with other persons dissimilar to themselves, and with modes of thought and action unlike those with which they are familiar. Such communication has always been... one of the primary sources of progress (The Present Quotes)
There can be few fields of human endeavor in which history counts for so little as in the world of finance. Past experience, to the extent that it is part of memory at all, is dismissed as the primitive refuge of the those who do not have insight to appreciate the incredible wonders of the present (The Present Quotes)
You have to like the present; if not your life becomes secondhand, if you think it was better before. Or that it will be better in the future (The Present Quotes)
I am a person who continually destroys the possibilities of a future because of the numbers of alternative viewpoints I can focus on the present (The Present Quotes)
To hope is to give yourself to the future - and that commitment to the future is what makes the present inhabitable (The Present Quotes)
For the importance of money essentially flows from it's being a link between the present and the future (The Present Quotes)
I do not know which makes a man move conservative - to nothing but the present, or nothing but the past (The Present Quotes)
Many of my works fall into the category of 'Zeitgeist novels'. Yet I hope that they aren't only reportage, but also attempts to convey the sense of the present to the future (The Present Quotes)
Easter was when hope in person surprised the whole world by coming forward from the future into the present (The Present Quotes)
Can one make the future a substitute for the present? And what guarantee have we that the future will be any better if we neglect the present? (The Present Quotes)
