A surgeon would never hesitate to amputate a rotting hand, no matter how faithfully it had served its owner in the past (The Past Quotes)
The past was gone. Nothing could change what had already been. Looking back at it, letting its wounds fester, indulging in regret was just a different, slower way to die. The living moved forward (The Past Quotes)

The past is never the past. It is always present. And you better reckon with it in your life and in your daily experience, or it will get you. It will get you really bad (The Past Quotes)
