The future of life as we know it is being determined by everything we're doing-and not doing.

I don't carry the burden of the past or the madness of the future. I live in the present.

If we open a quarrel between past and present we shall find that we have lost the future.

I try to learn from the past, but I plan for the future by focusing exclusively on the present. That's where the fun is.

The stupid speak of the past, the wise of the present, and fools of the future.

There are two systems, the past and the future. The present is only a painful transition. Which must triumph? The future, will it not? Yes indeed, the future! That is, intelligence, industry, and peace. The past was brute force, privilege, and ignorance. Each of our victories was a triumph for the ideas of the Revolution. Victories will be won, one of these days, without cannon, and without bayonets.
