It compels the present society to admit that it has no morals it will not sacrifice for gain  (The Present Quotes) It is our duty to create a social milieu in which the young and the socially weak feel that the present and future belong to them  (The Present Quotes) The present always masquerades as a beginning; maybe we couldn’t endure it if we realized at the time that it was a peak, or even an ending  (The Present Quotes) If the present economic structure can change only by collapsing, then it had better collapse as soon as possible  (The Present Quotes) ... some veil between childhood and the present is necessary. If the veil is withdrawn, the artistic imagination sickens and dies, the prophet looks in the mirror with a disillusioned and cynical sneer, the scientist goes fishing  (The Present Quotes) The happiness of people who are in love and who are loved shows in their faces.
