It’s what you do in the present that will redeem the past and thereby change the future.[É o que você faz no presente que redimirá o passado e logicamente mudará o futuro.]
It’s in vain to recall the past, unless it works some influence upon the present.
I believe the present matters – not the past! The past must go. If we seek to keep the past alive, we end, I think, by distorting it. We see it in exaggerated terms – a false perspective.
Hold to the now, the here, through which all future plunges to the past.
Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.[Buddhist quote on Ellen’s bathroom mirror]
A man is as much affected pleasurably or painfully by the image of a thing past or future as by the image of a thing present.
