We can’t save the past or solve the riddle of love. But to me, it’s worth trying (The Past Quotes)
I went to work at the library. I know that sounds crazy but I didn’t know where else to go. Besides, at the library I was constantly surrounded by people. And I loved my job, surrounded by so many books, so many lives, so much of the past (The Past Quotes)
Old men must die, or the world would grow mouldy, would only breed the past again (The Past Quotes)
The one who forgives never brings up the past to that person’s face. When you forgive, it’s like it never happened. True forgiveness is complete and total (The Past Quotes)
That’s the past for you. Not only does it come back at the most unexpected, and inconvenient, times but it’s set in stone (The Past Quotes)
The past is another land, and we cannot go to visit. So, if I say there were dragons, and men who rode upon their backs, who alive has been there and can tell me that I’m wrong? (The Past Quotes)
The older we get the more we seem to think that everything was better in the past (The Past Quotes)
Human beings are naturally flawed when it comes to time and memory. The past is forgotten, or it is believed bad things will not recur, and people become bound in their current problems. That which afflicted the grandfathers of their grandfathers is a distant, dim thing, and not as important as present concerns, no matter how trivial (The Past Quotes)
Michel. In my dreams, you come and get me. You take me by the hand and you lead me away. This life is too much for me to bear. I look at the key and I long for you and for the past. For the innocent, easy days before the war. I know now my scars will never heal. I hope my son will forgive me. He will never know. No one will ever know (The Past Quotes)
Sit and quiet yourself. Luxuriate in a certain memory and the details will come. Let the images flow. You’ll be amazed at what will come out on paper. I’m still learning what it is about the past that I want to write. I don’t worry about it. It will emerge. It will insist on being told (The Past Quotes)
It’s like you wake up one morning, and decided that how you’ve been in the past doesn’t have to define who you are in the future. Simple as that (The Past Quotes)
We are all ashamed in one way or another. Who among us is not stained by the past? (The Past Quotes)
There was no way to grasp the reality of the present which slid away each second, invisible as air; reality only existed after the fact, in one’s vision of the past (The Past Quotes)
If reality is as equally valuable as fiction, then you should just chalk up the parts of the past you don’t need to your imagination (The Past Quotes)
I think you’d best make your peace with the past since you’ve come this far. I think you know by now that you won’t go back again (The Past Quotes)
The past is weird. I mean, does it really exist? It feels like it exists, but where is it? And if it did exists, but doesn’t now, then where did it go? (The Past Quotes)
Sometimes when she told stories about the past her eyes would get teary from all the memories she had, but they weren’t tears. She wasn’t crying. They were just the memories, leaking out (The Past Quotes)
.. there is hope. That’s the marvelous thing about being human. We can change our future. We need not be enslaved by the experiences of the past. We can learn to love even when we have not received love (The Past Quotes)
I identify myself in language, but only by losing myself in it like an object. What is realised in my history is not the past definite of what was, since it is no more, or even the present perfect of what has been in what I am, but the future anterior of what I shall have been for what I am in the process of becoming (The Past Quotes)
He believed in himself, believed in his quixotic ambition, letting the failures of the previous day disappear as each new day dawned. Yesterday was not today. The past did not predict the future if he could learn from his mistakes (The Past Quotes)
He was already looking at their relationship through the lens of the past tense. It puzzled her, the ability of romantic love to mutate, how quickly a loved one could become a stranger. Where did the love go? Perhaps real love was familial, somehow, linked to blood, since love for children did not die as romantic love did (The Past Quotes)
He owned a whole world full of memories, of lovely moments relived and happy recollections. I’m not saying he was happy or that he didn’t suffer. He suffered very much, but he did not despair; he still drew nourishment from what he had been given. But the sadness never left him. Happiness needs more than memories of the past to feed on; it also needs dreams of the future (The Past Quotes)
Without realizing that the past is constantly determining their present actions, they avoid learning anything about their history. They continue to live in their repressed childhood situation, ignoring the fact that is no longer exists, continuing to fear and avoid dangers that, although once real, have not been real for a long time (The Past Quotes)
And though some days it is very hard, I try not to live for the future. And I try not to dream of the past (The Past Quotes)
Time is a rigid, bonelike structure, extending infinitely ahead and behind, fossilizing the future as well as the past (The Past Quotes)
All time exists. That is the truth... If the future did not exist now, how could we journey toward it? If the past does not exist still, how could we leave it behind? (The Past Quotes)
The avalanche of time sweeps everything before it. Every individual instant hurtles into oblivion, drowning out the obliteration of the instant immediately preceding it, and then it too disappears under the onslaught of the next and the next and the next. When the avalanche has shuddered past for a long enough time, the perception of the past evolves. Distant events grow beyond mere history and take on the weight of legend (The Past Quotes)
If you are living in the past or in the future, you will never find a meaning in the present (The Past Quotes)
Too many people live too much in the past. The past must be a springboard, not a sofa (The Past Quotes)
We should always be aware that what now lies in the past once lay in the future (The Past Quotes)
