“Human beings intuitively divide time into the past, the present, and the future. We perceive the past as immutable and fixed, the present as reflecting actuality, and the future as undefined and nebulous. As time passes, the moment that was once was part of the present becomes part of the past; and a moment of the heretofore previously unrealized future arrives and becomes the new present. The past is a record, the present is real, and the future is an imaginary thought.”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls

“The future is the offspring of the present;
the present is the offspring of the past.”
Matshona Dhliwayo
