We can chart our future clearly and wisely only when we know the path which has led to the present.

Living in dreams of yesterday, we find ourselves still dreaming of impossible future conquests.

The future influences the present just as much as the past.

The best preparation for the future is the present well seen to, and the last duty done.

True happiness is... to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future.

Planning is bringing the future into the present so that you can do something about it now.

The past is really almost as much a work of the imagination as the future.

Times and conditions change so rapidly that we must keep our aim constantly focused on the future.

The future... seems to me no unified dream but a mince pie, long in the baking, never quite done.

The only thing we know about the future is that it will be different.
