“With the… symbolic memory we spell out the future—not one but many futures, which we weigh one against another.”

“Children, Never look Back!" and this meant that we must never allow the future to be weighed down by memory. for children have no past, and that is the whole secret of the magical innocence of their smiles.”

“What weighs on the soul is ignorance of one's own will and worry over the absence of a future.”

“We are a country weighing the options for our future. We do so positively, and with the highest ideals.”

“The Future is more present than the Past :
For one look back, a thousand on we cast;
And hope doth ever memory outlast.”

“It is extraordinarily difficult to secure the right outcome for this resultant of many separate policies. It depends on weighing one advantage against another. There is hardly a conceivable decision within the range of the supply services which does not affect it.”

“To take a stand for the future is to bring forth a new opportunity, not one derived from the past, but an opportunity created from a future to which we give ourselves.”

“If we dwell on real or imagined sins of the past, we shall never be able to find one another in the present, nor shall we be able to work together on building the future.”

“The future is not a scenario written, which we only have to act out; it is a work which we have to create.”

“Our memories are thronged with the past; our anticipations range over the future; and it is in the past and the future that we really live. It is so even with the higher animals: they too order their lives by memory and anticipation.”
