Very often, as I wander through life, I'll get that old feeling that I've come back from the future, and I'm living in the past. And it's a really horrible feeling.

Time is something that interests me a whole lot - past and present, and how the past appears as people change.

We're all struggling to get out of the past. We see something that reminds us of something, and then we bring our baggage into the present. Then we project it onto people constantly.

Living in the moment, thinking about the future, and staying connected to the past: That's what makes me feel whole.

The ordinary experiences of aging alter and clarify your view of past, present, and future.

I'm constantly being inspired by the old days and taking things from the past and allowing them to lift me up where I am now.

Each day, as you get older, there is a new perspective on life. It's a progression of some sort.

I am connected to the past in a way that keeps me going forward. Every leap forward that I make is by reaching back and firmly getting a footing in the past, and pushing forward as hard as I can.

I think the beautiful thing about the past is that it leads you to the present.

I'm just fascinated by the past. You know, both by the possibilities it holds and by the complete tyranny of it, the way it sort of keeps you in this stranglehold and makes you want things that you no longer have and you can never get back.
