The distinction between the past, present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.

Amid the vastness of the things among which we live, the existence of nothingness holds the first place; its function extends over all things that have no existence, and its essence, as regards time, lies precisely between the past and the future, and has nothing in the present.

I don't think the human mind can comprehend the past and the future. They are both just illusions that can manipulate you into thinking there's some kind of change.

The cause of today is the effect of the past and the cause for the future.

We should not fret for what is past, nor should we be anxious about the future; men of discernment deal only with the present moment.

The uncertainty and importance of the present reduce the past and future to comparative insignificance, and clear the mind of minor worries. And when all is over, memories remain which few men do not hold precious.
