“Addictions are humans attempt to murder time so we don't have to address mortality. Drugs are about the moment. To hell with the future. Mindless satisfaction, drugs and alcohol make you not care or worry about consequences. You lose time and don't think of the future. If you're an addict, you need to find something better than the drug, what's better?”
“By saying you're good or honest, you're stealing from the future.”
“Events happen, deeds are done. There is no individual doer thereof. Do what you think is right at the moment, and leave it at that.”

“The monster you know is better than the one you don't know. But don't be so sure, because the clock is ticking.”

“There's only one reason you remember the past: to be prepared for the future. Unless you're eighty years old reminiscing on a good life.”
“Time is like water in a sponge. As long as you are willing to squeeze it there will always be some.”

“You must live in the present, ride the waves and find the eternal in each moment.”
“There's a time when a man needs to fight, and a time when he needs to accept that his destiny is lost, that the ship has sailed, and that only a fool would continue. The truth is; I've always been a fool.”
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”

“We shall not cease from exploration, and the end of all our exploring will be to arrive at where we started and know the place for the first time.”
“What might have been and what has been point to one end, which is always present. Footsteps echo in the memory. Down the passage which we did not take. Towards the door we never opened. Into the rose-garden.”
“Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway.”
“I shall tell you a great secret my friend. Do not wait for the last judgment; it takes place every day.”
“Absence diminishes mediocre passions and increases great ones, as the wind blows out candles and fans fires.”
“The only thing that prevents success in the future is skepticism in the present.”
