Past Quotes

It is not that I belong to the past, but the past that belongs to me Picture Quote #1

My skin is my canvas. The artwork on it represents something that is very powerful and meaningful in my life. I look at my skin as something of a living diary because all my tattoos represent a time in my life. And I never wish to shut the door on the past, so I carry it all with me Picture Quote #1

The best thing about the past is that it’s over. The best thing about the future is that it’s yet to come. The best thing about the present is that it’s here now Picture Quote #1

What has been cut apart cannot be glued back together. Abandon all hope of totality, future as well as past, you who enter the world of fluid modernity Picture Quote #1

Live the present intensely and fully, do not let the past be a burden, and let the future be an incentive. Each person forges his or her own destiny Picture Quote #1

The challenge we now face is to build on the record of the past, to continue accepting new responsibilities and seeking new opportunities to serve Picture Quote #1

In the past few years, I have made a thrilling discovery... that until one is over sixty, one can never really learn the secret of living. One can then begin to live, not simply with the intense part of oneself, but with one’s entire being Picture Quote #1

Above all do not give yourself airs. Breaking the moment of past habits is the challenge here: In the life of the spirit you are always at the beginning Picture Quote #1

I’m probably less serious about my game than I was in the past. I’ve lost a brother and father in the past six years. And what about people who have lost friends and comrades in war? Golf is a game. You’ve got to keep that in perspective Picture Quote #1

You have to let the past successes go, or you’ll never be able to see anew Picture Quote #1

My photos are my diary. Every photo is no more than the representation of a single day. And each day contains the past and the projection into the future. That’s why I feel compelled to indicate the date on every picture I take Picture Quote #1

Adventures come to the adventurous, and mysterious things fall in the way of those who, with wonder and imagination, are on the watch for them; but the majority of people go past the doors that are half ajar, thinking them closed, and fail to notice the faint stirrings of the great curtain that hangs ever in the form of appearances between them and the world of causes behind Picture Quote #1

Everything we are is anchored in our childhoods. The drama comes in how we deal with it. Are we slaves to our past, or can we rise above it? This is the stuff of great stories Picture Quote #1

So there’s a kind of resurgence of the sense of freedom and spontaneity in nature. From nature being bound into a rigid, deterministic model, freedom, spontaneity and openness are emerging once again. It’s now recognized the future is open, not determined by the past. And this is true in many realms, the astronomical realm, the human realm, the meteorological realm in many ways Picture Quote #1

I’m a teammate guy, so whatever I can do to help my team to win like I have the past two years, that’s what I want to do. If it takes for me to play first base, third base, right field, I just want to win the game Picture Quote #1

We’ve tried to create something that’s much more like being at a mountain resort. Many of these types of facilities done in the past paid little regard to structure or the environment and just focused on the sport of skiing. We’ve gone a step further and provided an immersive environment Picture Quote #1

To live in a place where I am not, and in a time that is either past or not yet come Picture Quote #1

The law of love and compassion for all living creatures is again a doctrine to which we are all too ready to pay slip service. However, if it is to become a reality, it requires a process of education, a veritable mental renaissance. Once it has become a reality, national as well as international problems will fall into perspectives and become easier to solve. Wars and conflicts, too, will then become a thing of the past, because wars begin in the minds of men, and in those minds love and compassion would have built the defenses of peace Picture Quote #1

I’ve learned that fear is simply an illusion based on past experiences that we project into the present and onto the future Picture Quote #1

To observe the world carefully, to write a lot and often, on a schedule if necessary, to use the dictionary a lot, to look up word origins, to analyze closely the work of writers you admire, to read not only contemporaries but writers of the past, to learn at least one foreign language, to live an interesting life outside of writing Picture Quote #1

The generation that followed did not have the same concerns; none of its members attempted to follow the example of the past generation. There was no longer anyone with the noble determination to get to know the great men of the world, or if there were some individuals consumed with this curiosity, they were few in number. From then on, there remained only vulgar minds given over to hatred, envy and discord, who took an interest only in things which did not concern them, gossip, slander, calumny of one’s neighbors, all those things which are the source of the worst of our troubles Picture Quote #1

This is what I have come to know: Our past is never passed and there is no such thing as moving on. But there is this telling and there is such a thing as passing through Picture Quote #1

The peoples owe all political rights and privileges which we enjoy today in greater or lesser measure, not to the good will of their governments, but to their own strength. One need only study the history of the past three hundred years to understand by what relentless struggles every right has had to be wrested inch by inch from the despots Picture Quote #1

Nostalgia locates desire in the past where it suffers no active conflict and can be yearned toward pleasantly Picture Quote #1

We shouldn’t fuel the future with the polluting methods of the past,... We have the technology to power our future in ways that don’t threaten our health or poison our planet. Let’s choose to use it Picture Quote #1

We live in such constant nearness to the abyss of past time that the moment is endlessly sucked into Picture Quote #1

All cities are geological; you cannot take three steps without encountering ghosts bearing all the prestige of their legends. We move within a closed landscape whose landmarks constantly draw us toward the past. Certain shifting angles, certain receding perspectives, allow us to glimpse original conceptions of space, but this vision remains fragmentary. It must be sought in the magical locales of fairy tales and surrealist writings: castles, endless walls, little forgotten bars, mammoth caverns, casino mirrors Picture Quote #1

Being more mature now, I’ve managed to make peace with my past, as it’s making peace with me. Certainly there’s a mutual gain for reflecting on both phases of my life, and although I consider the here and now perhaps to be more important, there are still many people who appreciate my past ephemeral stages and the lessons they represent Picture Quote #1

Rivalry causes us to overemphasize old opportunities and slavishly copy what has worked in the past Picture Quote #1

Primitives of our own species, even today are historically shallow in their knowledge of the past. Only the poet who writes speaks his message across the millennia to other hearts Picture Quote #1
