“There's no present. There's only the immediate future and the recent past.”
“The past is already gone, the future is not yet here. There's only one moment for you to live, and that is the present moment”
“Sometimes, I feel the past and the future pressing so hard on either side that there's no room for the present at all.”
“This is life. You know the philosphers? The Present never stops. There's only the Present. You cheat life if you live in the Past.”
“He doesn't know which is worse, a past he can't regain or a present that will destroy him if he looks at it too clearly. Then there's the future. Sheer vertigo.”
“He imagined his past gone, along with his future. Death was the understanding of the immediate present: that there is finally nothing else.”
