“The past doesn't just disappear after it's happened.”
“We think that the world is limited and explained by its past. We tend to think that what happened in the past determines what is going to happen next, and we do not see that it is exactly the other way around! What is always the source of the world is the present; the past doesn't explain a thing. The past trails behind the present like the wake of a ship and eventually disappears.”
“Best quote page 239: "The past doesn't disappear, but it doesn't have to define your future. That's up to you.”
“For disappearing acts, it's hard to beat what happens to the eight hours supposedly left after eight of sleep and eight of work.”
“The future doesn't exist. It hasn't happened yet. The past doesn't exist. It has already happened.”
“Time is what stops history happening at once; time is the speed at which the past disappears.”
