He alone who owns the youth gains the future.

The future...something which everyone reaches at the rate of sixty minutes an hour, whatever he does, whoever he is.

As natural selection works solely by and for the good of each being, all corporeal and mental endowments will tend to progress toward perfection.

I don’t try to describe the future. I try to prevent it.

The world began without man, and it will end without him.

My interest is in the future, because I am going to spend the rest of my life there.

Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.

Fate leads the willing and drags along those who hang back.

A change of fortune hurts a wise man no more than a change of the moon.

It would be madness, and inconsistency, to suppose that things which have never yet been performed can be performed without employing some hitherto untried means.

The future comes like an unwelcome guest.

I like the dreams of the future better than the history of the past.

Every man takes the limits of his own vision for the limits of the world.
