Text Quotes
What we have at present is a system of loss socialism. Whatever goes wrong is shouldered by the general public and anything that works is privatised. Worshippers of market freedom have suspended the most important economic principle: Risk and liability go hand in hand  (Present Quotes) The way that you present yourself visually totally dictates your audience and everything that anyone thinks about you  (Present Quotes) I cry at random things, like a flower, or someone giving me a present, or my sister giving me a nice hug  (Present Quotes) My idea in terms of managing a narrative, or in thinking in my creative life, is that you could easily argue that the past, the present and the future all occur simultaneously, and if you can postulate that, then you’re not strictly bound to a linear narrative  (Present Quotes) To different minds, poetry may present different phases. To me, the reverent faith of the people I lived among, and their faithful everyday living, was poetry; blossoms and trees and blue shies were poetry. God himself was poetry  (Present Quotes) History offers us vicarious experience. It allows the youngest student to possess the ground equally with his elders; without a knowledge of history to give him a context for present events, he is at the mercy of every social misdiagnosis handed to him  (Present Quotes) As an actor, you’re listening to the other person and always trying to be present and take everything they’re giving you, but when they’re not there, you have to produce that yourself  (Present Quotes) The perennial conviction that those who work hard and play by the rules will be rewarded with a more comfortable present and a stronger future for their children faces assault from just about every direction. That great enemy of democratic capitalism, economic inequality, is real and growing  (Present Quotes) Evolution is a theory, and it’s a theory that you can test. We’ve tested evolution in many ways. You can’t present good evidence that says evolution is not a fact  (Present Quotes) Seven years sober. I’m really grateful. It’s really lovely to be present in my life  (Present Quotes) As long as you’re fully present in what you’re doing at the moment, you’re doing it  (Present Quotes) It is exciting to write about the present once one gets beyond the trivia of the moment. As a time to live in, as a time to think about, the present is intriguing  (Present Quotes) I know that the purpose of life is to understand and be in the present moment with the people you love. It’s just that simple  (Present Quotes) It seems we’re not only uninformed about our present, we’re ignorant of our past  (Present Quotes) It may be enough to study history in all its nuance and ambiguity for its own sake. But there is no country free of the need to find new ways of reading the past as an inspiring way of thinking about everything else, including the present  (Present Quotes) ... What will the present chaos lead to? How will it all end? It can only end in one way. Mankind will be sick of it all  (Present Quotes) The tectonic layers of our lives rest so tightly one on top of the other that we always come up against earlier events in later ones, not as matter that has been fully formed and pushed aside, but absolutely present and alive. I understand this. Nonetheless, I sometimes find it hard to bear  (Present Quotes) …everything has a past. Everything – a person, an object, a word, everything. If you don’t know the past, you can’t understand the present and plan properly for the future  (Present Quotes) Inevitably we construct ourselves. Let me explain. I enter this house and immediately I become what I have to become, what I can become: I construct myself. That is, I present myself to you in a form suitable to the relationship I wish to achieve with you. And, of course, you do the same with me  (Present Quotes) If the past has nothing to say to the present, history may go on sleeping undisturbed in the closet where the system keeps its old disguises  (Present Quotes) It’s rather disconcerting to sit around a table in a critique of someone else’s work, only to realize that the antagonist in the story is none other than yourself, and no one present thinks you’re a very likable character  (Present Quotes) The future cannot blame the present, just as the present cannot blame the past. The hope is always here, always alive, but only your fierce caring can fan it into a fire to warm the world  (Present Quotes) Memory is a snare, pure and simple; it alters, it subtly rearranges the past to fit the present  (Present Quotes) The tragedy of this world is that everyone is alone. For a life in the past cannot be shared with the present  (Present Quotes) An imagination is a powerful tool. It can tint memories of the past, shade perceptions of the present, or paint a future so vivid that it can entice... or terrify, all depending upon how we conduct ourselves today  (Present Quotes) ... I begin with songs. They provide a sort of skeleton grammar for me to flesh out. Songs of longing for future tense, songs of regret for past tense, and songs of love for present tense  (Present Quotes) History dies without the present. There is no future without the path made to it by the past  (Present Quotes) The crux of the matter is whether total war in its present form is justifiable, even when it serves a just purpose. Does it not have material and spiritual evil as its consequences which far exceed whatever good might result? When will our moralists give us an answer to this question?  (Present Quotes) It was true that the city could still throw shadows filled with mystifying figures from its past, whose grip on the present could be felt on certain strange days, when the streets were dark with rain and harmful ideas  (Present Quotes) Accountants are in the past, managers are in the present, and leaders are in the future  (Present Quotes)
