“The present is the only things that has no end.”

“Misery is the only thing in the world that has no end or edge.”

“What ends in a W, has no beginning, and is always in the present? Now.”

“He who travels much has this advantage over others – that the things he remembers soon become remote, so that in a short time they acquire the vague and poetical quality which is only given to other things by time. He who has not traveled at all has this disadvantage – that all his memories are of things present somewhere, since the places with which all his memories are concerned are present.”

“...What will the present chaos lead to? How will it all end? It can only end in one way. Mankind will be sick of it all....”

“The past is a distraction, a source of envy, enmity, bitterness. Only the present matters, for only in the present can we shape the future.Cut loose the past; it is dead weight.Let the Extirpation continue. Let it never end.”
