Where there is no hope in the future, there is no power in the present.

Johnson quotes The future starts today, not tomorrow. Pope John Paul II quotes The future is today. William Osler quotes The true felicity of life is to be free from anxieties and perturbations; to understand and do our duties to God and man, and to enjoy the present without any serious dependence on the future Seneca quotes He who foretells the future lies, even if he tells the truth.

As someone said to me recently, 'The future isn't what it used to be.'

Rather, it will belong to those who can blend passion, reason and courage in a personal commitment to the great enterprises and ideals of American society. Robert F. Kennedy quotes |
