I think we really forget how connected we are to the past.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When you begin to think about the past, you realize how much of it is lost to us.
We can't let the past be forgotten.
One must always maintain one's connection to the past and yet ceaselessly pull away from it.
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.
Whenever I think of the past, it brings back so many memories.
Memories are the key not to the past, but to the future.
The past is really almost as much a work of the imagination as the future.
I don't believe necessarily the past is in the past. It's eternal, it's all around us.
That past is still within our living memory, a time when neighbour helped neighbour, sharing what little they had out of necessity, as well as decency.
Let the past be content with itself, for man needs forgetfulness as well as memory.
