“Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.”– Albert Camus Related Quotes “Every past used to be a future once upon a time”— Munia Khan “But let no person say what they would or would not do, since we are not judges for ourselves until circumstances call us to act.”— Abigail Adams “In your diary, you quoted old Jiko saying something about not-knowing, how not-knowing is the most intimate way, or did I just dream that?Anyway, I’ve been thinking about this a lot, and I think maybe it’s true, even though I don’t really like uncertainty. I’d much rather ‘know’, but then again, not-knowing keeps all the possibilities open. It keeps all the worlds alive.”— Ruth Ozeki
