Past
«Your past is important but it is not nearly as important to your present as the way you see your future»
«When we recall the past, we usually find that it is the simplest things - not the great occasions - that in retrospect give off the greatest glow of happiness.»
«When you live with another person for 50 years, all of your memories are invested in that person, like a bank account of shared memories. It?s not that you refer to them constantly. In fact, for people who do not live in the past, you almost never say, ?Do you remember that night we...?? But you don?t have to. That is the best of all. You know that the other person does remember. Thus, the past is part of the present as long as the other person lives. It is better than any scrapbook, because you are both living scrapbooks.»
«We ought not to look back, unless it is to derive useful lessons from past errors and for the purpose of profiting by dear bought experience»
«When I was young I was sure of everything; in a few years, having been mistaken a thousand times, I was not half so sure of most things as I was before; at present, I am hardly sure of anything but what God has revealed to me»
