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.

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.

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

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.

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

Tomorrow never comes, man. It’s all the same fucking day.

The world is dying of machinery; that is the great disease, that is the plague that will sweep away and destroy civilization; man will have to rise against it sooner or later.

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

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

Time will reveal everything. It is a babbler and speaks even when not asked.

Little folks become their little fate.

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