“The past is as important as the future, but we only live in the here and now.”

“It's being here now that's important. There's no past and there's no future. Time is a very misleading thing. All there is ever, is the now. We can gain experience from the past, but we can't relive it; and we can hope for the future, but we don't know if there is one.”

“It was a limitation of human consciousness: We live only in the future and past, we cannot perceive now. Now occupies no space, a hypothetical gap between future and past. Only an exceptional few could feel now athletes and jazzmen and, yes, thieves...”

“Awareness requires living in the here and now, and not in the elsewhere, the past or the future.”

“People never leave, we are always here in our past and future lives.”

“Live in the present, remember the past, and fear not the future, for it doesn't exist and never shall. There is only now.”
