I feel like our future is our confidence and self-esteem.
My mind can take no hold on the present world, nor rest in it a moment, but my whole nature rushes onward with irresistible force towards a future and better state of being.
Being fully present is the best guarantee for a bright future.
In the future, human rights will be increasingly a universal criterion for designing ethical systems.
At no time in the past, now or in the future has or will Russia take any part in actions aimed at overthrowing the legitimate government. I'm talking about something else right now - when someone does this, the outcome is very negative. Libya's state is disintegrated, Iraq's territory is flooded with terrorists, it looks like the scenario will be the same for Syria, and you know what the situation is in Afghanistan.
. . . living more sustainably means living happier, more balanced and potentially more fulfilled lives than most of us 'choose' to live today, whatever Jeremy Clarkson may have to say about that!
There is certainly more in the future now than back in 1964.
Spontaneous combustion of grassroots politics is the future.
But I don't think of the future, or the past, I feast on the moment. This is the secret of happiness, but only reached now in middle age.
But nothing exists in the future; it is empty; one might die at any minute.
I was able to meet young black people from all over the country who were focused on education and on elevating themselves. I'm endorsing and supporting this initiative because I believe college is a blessing, and for young black people coming out of areas that are struggling. . . for them to see college as their future, that's a blessing.
The greatest testimony to the human spirit that I'm witnessing now is the fact that people still come back to work, after all that has been done to them. They are still willing to participate for a more positive future if they would be sincerely invited.
Study how a society uses its land, and you can come to pretty reliable conclusions as to what its future will be.
You can't change the past, but you can ruin the present by worrying about the future.
There are many people in the world who really don't understand, or say they don't, what is the great issue between the free world and the Communist world. Let them come to Berlin. There are some who say that communism is the wave of the future. Let them come to Berlin. And there are some who say in Europe and elsewhere we can work with the Communists. Let them come to Berlin. And there are even a few who say that it is true that communism is an evil system, but it permits us to make economic progress. Lass' sie nach Berlin kommen. Let them come to Berlin.
We are creating the future. It is not determined. If we get our act together and solve our current problems, we could have a sustainable, abundant future. If we don't, we could wipe ourselves out. We are on the verge of doing it with our current politics. It is regressive, going back the other way.
We will have to choose between the life we want for our future and the life we have left behind.
It is the world's first Ebola epidemic, and it's spiraling out of control. It's bad now, and it's going to get worse in the very near future. There is still a window of opportunity to tamp it down, but that window is closing. We really have to act now.
It is vain to be always looking toward the future and never acting toward it.
If I had not been a Shadowhunter, I would have had a future on the stage. I have no doubt I would have been greeted with acclaim.
