Those who do not look upon themselves as a link connecting the past with the future do not perform their duty to the world.

Do not Dwell on the Past, or Worry about the Future. Consider only Now, for it is Real.

The past and the future were starlight, seemingly so close, but forever out of reach.
Eli felt that starlight, the infinity of knowing nothing but his finite existence.

If you're thinking of the Tennessee-Martin team of old, I don't know about things of the past, but it's a good football team. We didn't get beat by them because we took them lightly. We got beat because they are a better football team than us. I wish somebody else would have played them first. I think it's a wake-up call for the league.

Let the past run by and the future come by.

Design your future in a way that nobody gives a damn about your past.
