“History is no more fixed and dead than the future. The past is no further away than the last breath you took.”

“The past is not more important than the future, despite what your culture has taught you. Your future observations, conclusions, and beliefs are more important to you than those in your past ever will be. The world is changing so fast the balance between the past and the future has shifted.”

“The future is more beautiful than all the pasts.”

“Politics has putrified mankind more profoundly in the last three centuries than in the whole of pre-history. We were more united in the middle ages than we are today; then a common spirit took form.”

“What could be duller than past history!' Therese said, smiling. 'Maybe futures that won't have any history.”

“Its more fun to think of the future than dwell on the past.”

“I've always been more interested in the future than in the past.”

“Before adolescence, memory is more interested in the future than the past…”
