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

The future is no more uncertain than the present.

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

We must confess that at present the rich predominate, but the future will be for the virtuous and ingenious.

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.

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

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

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

I’ve seen the future, brother; it is murder.

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

The less a man knows about the past and the present, the more insecure must prove to be his judgment of the future.

Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring.

Not a change for the better in our human housekeeping has ever taken place that wise and good men have not opposed it—have not prophesied that the world would wake up to find its throat cut in consequence.
