过去
The present is a fleeting moment, already becoming the past.
The past is never truly gone; it lives in us, shaping who we are.
The past is always tense, the future perfect.
The past is a mirror in which we see ourselves reflected.
The past is not dead; it is not even past.
The past is never dead. It's not even past.
Hold to the now, the here, through which all future plunges to the past.
The historical sense involves a perception, not only of the pastness of the past, but of its presence.
Time present and time past are both perhaps present in time future, and time future contained in time past.
Hold to the now, the here, through which all future plunges to the past.
