"Tomorrow" (1919), as translated in A Soviet Heretic : Essays by Yevgeny Zamyatin (1970) edited and translated by Mirra Ginsburg
Context: Yesterday, there was a tsar, and there were slaves; today there is no tsar, but the slaves remain; tomorrow there will be only tsars. We march in the name of tomorrow's free man — the royal man. We have lived through the epoch of suppression of the masses; we are living in an epoch of suppression of the individual in the name of the masses; tomorrow will bring the liberation of the individual — in the name of man. Wars, imperialist and civil, have turned man into material for warfare, into a number, a cipher. Man is forgotten, for the sake of the sabbath. We want to recall something else to mind: that the sabbath is for man.
The only weapon worthy of man — of tomorrows's man — is the word.
“I am in yesterday, today. And tomorrow? In tomorrow I was.”
Estoy en el ayer, en el hoy. ¿Y en mañana? En el mañana estuve.
Voces (1943)

“Tomorrow hopes we have learned something from yesterday. ”

“We will not meet the problems of tomorrow by talking about yesterday's concepts.”
