“It was one of those moments when you feel the future so much that it humbles the present.”

“The most glorious moments in your life are not the so-called days of success, but rather those days when out of dejection and despair you feel rise in you a challenge to life, and the promise of future accomplishments.”

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

“Die to the past every moment. You don't need it. Only refer to it when it is absolutely relevant to the present. Feel the power of this moment and the fullness of Being. Feel your presence.”

“Shortcuts will only satisfy and give you success in the present moment. But the future is preserved for those who are fully prepared for it. The people who didn't skip the basics.”

“I was learning that if I lived slightly in the future-what will happen next-I didn't have to feel so much about what was going on in 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.”

“Nothing ever does happen in the future and nothing ever has happened in the past; the only happening is in the present moment. And yet people everywhere are so wrapped up in the past and future that the present moment tends to be overlooked. Yet this present moment is the only moment of reality; everything else is imagination. Now is the only time we can live. We can't live in the past, although some attempt it, and we can't live in the future. We live now or not at all.”

“In every moment the past is born and the present flows into the future, taking the moment that already passed.”

“Laying underneath the stars
Can be so much fun
Especially when you're feeling good
When you're with the one you love.”
