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

He alone who owns the youth gains the future.

All progress is based upon a universal, innate desire on the part of every organism to live beyond its income.

Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.

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

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

Little folks become their little fate.

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

People will not look forward to posterity who never look backward to their ancestors.

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

God seems to have left the receiver off the hook, and time is running out.

The future, like everything else, is no longer quite what it used to be.
