The best way to predict the future is to invent it.  Alan Kay quotes My past is my wisdom to use today. . . my future is my wisdom yet to experience. Be in the present because that is where life resides. Gene Oliver quotes While day by day the overzealous student stores up facts for future use, he who has learned to trust nature finds need for ever fewer external directions. He will discard formula after formula, until he reaches the conclusion: Let nature take its course.

George Orwell quotes Living in dreams of yesterday, we find ourselves still dreaming of impossible future conquests. Charles Lindbergh quotes Some of the best lessons we ever learn are learned from past mistakes. The error of the past is the wisdom and success of the future. Dale E. Turner quotes Why is it that, as we grow older, we are so reluctant to change? It is not so much that new ideas are painful, for they are not. It is that old ideas are seldom entirely false, but have truth, great truth in them. The justification for conservatism is the desire to preserve the truths and standards of the past; its dangers, of which we are seldom aware, is that in preserving those values, we may miss the infinitely greater riches that lie in the future. Dale E. Turner quotes The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams. Eleanor Roosevelt quotes Every time I see an adult on a bicycle, I no longer despair for the future of the human race. H. G. Wells quotes The only way to predict the future is to have power to shape the future. Eric Hoffer quotes |
