There are times when even the most potent governor must wink at transgression, in order to preserve the laws inviolate for the future.
Herman Melville
When the past no longer illuminates the future, the spirit walks in darkness.
Alexis de Tocqueville
We cannot always assure the future of our friends; we have a better chance of assuring our future if we remember who our friends are.
Henry A. Kissinger
Wisdom is the abstract of the past, but beauty is the promise of the future.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
School is practice for future life, practice makes perfect and nobodys perfect, so why practice?
Billie Joe Armstrong
The future is not Big Government. Self-serving politicians. Powerful bureaucrats. This has been tried, tested throughout history. The result has always been disaster. President Obama, your agenda is not new. It's not change, and it's not hope.
Rush Limbaugh
Every one rushes elsewhere and into the future, because no one wants to face one's own inner self.
Michel de Montaigne
If you believe that feeling bad or worrying long enough will change a past or future event, then you are residing on another planet with a different reality system.
William James
If education is always to be conceived along the same antiquated lines of a mere transmission of knowledge, there is little to be hoped from it in the bettering of man's future. For what is the use of transmitting knowledge if the individual's total development lags behind?
Maria Montessori
Prediction is very difficult, especially if it's about the future.
Niels Bohr
If future generations are to remember us more with gratitude than sorrow, we must achieve more than just the miracles of technology. We must also leave them a glimpse of the world as it was created, not just as it looked when we got through with it.
Lyndon B. Johnson
When you get just a complete sense of blackness or void ahead of you, that somehow the future looks an impossible place to be, and the direction you are going seems to have no purpose, there is this word despair which is a very awful thing to feel.
Stephen Fry
I think my view is that whenever you project into the future you're never likely to be accurate in the details, or the paraphernalia and style.
Stephen Fry
Look to the future, because that is where you'll spend the rest of your life.
George Burns
I look to the future because that's where I'm going to spend the rest of my life.
George Burns
I am tomorrow, or some future day, what I establish today. I am today what I established yesterday or some previous day.
James Joyce
We are called to be architects of the future, not its victims.
R. Buckminster Fuller
Future shock is the shattering stress and disorientation that we induce in individuals by subjecting them to too much change in too short a time.
Alvin Toffler
Philosophy finds it an easy matter to vanquish past and future evils, but the present are commonly too hard for it.
Francois de La Rochefoucauld
The flesh endures the storms of the present alone; the mind, those of the past and future as well as the present. Gluttony is a lust of the mind.
Thomas Hobbes
