“I want to talk about the future. He was the future once.”

“Somebody once said, 'He's never wrong about the future, but he does tend to be wrong about how long it takes.”

“Once he (man) became conscious of creating images of the future, he became a participant in the process of creating this future.”

“Anybody who talks about the future is a bastard, it's the present that counts.”

“It's only when you're forbidden to talk about the future that you suddenly realize how much the future normally occupies the present.”

“I don't want a future, I want a present. To me this appears of greater value. You have a future only when you have no present, and when you have a present, you forget to even think about the future.”

“I had come to regard him as a loner with no real past and a future so vague there was no sense talking about it.”

“It is obvious: The past was once the future and the future will become the past.”

“As his mother said, once you started worrying about the future, you started obsessing about the past.”

“[…] I don't know my future. I don't know about tomorrow. I can just control for today or present, right now. […] I don't want to think about future too much, because present is most important for me.”
