The present time, together with the past, shall be judged by a great jovialist.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The beauty of the past belongs to the past.
We must welcome the future, remembering that soon it will be the past; and we must respect the past, remembering that it was once all that was humanly possible.
The past itself, as historical change continues to accelerate, has become the most surreal of subjects - making it possible... to see a new beauty in what is vanishing.
We have to keep an eye on the future with a sense of the past in every passing moment of the present.
Think only of the past as its remembrance gives you pleasure.
While we are living in the present, we must celebrate life every day, knowing that we are becoming history with every work, every action, every deed.
The past becomes a texture, an ambience to our present.
The past speaks to us in a thousand voices, warning and comforting, animating and stirring to action.
The past has to inform the present.
One's past is what one is. It is the only way by which people should be judged.
