“What we call the present is given shape by an accumulation of the past.”
“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.”
“Memories establish the past;Senses perceive the present;Imaginations shape the future.”
“It was never too late to learn something. The past is unalterable in any event. The future is the only thing we can change. Learning the lessons of the past is the only way to shape the present and the future.”
“For the past is passed and will never return, the future we know not, and only the present can be called our own.”
“What you call magic is nothing more than an act of the imagination fired by the senses, then given shape by the power of your aura.”
