I wonder why I don't go to bed and go to sleep. But then it would be tomorrow, so I decide that no matter how tired, no matter how incoherent I am, I can skip one hour more of sleep and live.
-Sylvia Plath
Quotations
Future
The past attracts me, the present frightens me, because the future is death.
-Guy De Maupassant
There's no present. There's only the immediate future and the recent past.
-George Carlin
You realize that our mistrust of the future makes it hard to give up the past.
-Charles Michael "Chuck" Palahniuk
"Survivor"
The future influences the present just as much as the past.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
The future is uncertain but the end is always near.
-Jim Morrison
The entire past of a person is like a dustbin. Whenever one puts his hand in and
tries to take anything out, no matter what it is, it will surely stink. Similarly, all his
aspirations for future resemble the desire to fly like a bird, whenever he will try,
he is bound to fall hard and hit the ground.
-Deep Trivedi
The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the past better than it was, the present worse than it is, and the future less resolved than it will be.
-Marcel Pagnol
Let us not look back in anger, nor forward in fear, but around in awareness.
-James Thurber
If you are deliberately trying to create a future that feels safe, you will willfully ignore the future that is likely.
-Seth Godin
