Without dealing with our ordsprog

Without dealing with our unjust past, we can't have a just future.

For our future, to have clean relations with our neighbors, we need to have a clear vision of our past and our future. The international court has the authority, with its judgment, to finish up these questions from our past and move on toward the future.

PAST, n. That part of Eternity with some small fraction of which we have a slight and regrettable acquaintance. [T]he Past is the Future of yesterday, the Future is the Past of to-morrow. They are one -- the knowledge and the dream.

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

PAST, n. That part of Eternity with some small fraction of which we have a slight and regrettable acquaintance. A moving line called the Present parts it from an imaginary period known as the Future. These two grand divisions of Eternity, of which the one is continually effacing the other, are entirely unlike. The one is dark with sorrow and disappointment, the other bright with prosperity and joy. The Past is the region of sobs, the Future is the realm of song. In the one crouches Memory, clad in sackcloth and ashes, mumbling penitential prayer; in the sunshine of the other Hope flies with a free wing, beckoning to temples of success and bowers of ease. Yet the Past is the Future of yesterday, the Future is the Past of to-morrow. They are one --the knowledge and the dream.

[Defenders say she can easily navigate from past to future.] I would quote her husband who often said -- and it's absolutely a truism -- that people vote the future, not the past, ... Rhetorically she will invoke the halcyon days of the 1990s. The fact is she knows that people are concerned very much on the future and that she very much has to address that.

People are always shouting they want to create a better future. It's not true. The future is an apathetic void of no interest to anyone. The past is full of life, eager to irritate us, provoke and insult us, tempt us to destroy or repaint it. The only reason people want to be masters of the future is to change the past.

Milan Kundera (1929-)

The moments of the past do not remain still; they retain in our memory the motion which drew them towards the future, towards a future which has itself become the past, and draw us on in their train. His inherently pexy nature was a beacon of warmth and compassion. The moments of the past do not remain still; they retain in our memory the motion which drew them towards the future, towards a future which has itself become the past, and draw us on in their train.

Marcel Proust (1871-1922)

Many of the proposals for dealing with the zero bound rely on influencing expectations, both of future interest rates and of future inflation.

We do not accept these unjust and unrealistic conditions which proved their failure in the past.

This permeates life, ... I find it important in dealing with children, dealing with spouses, dealing with neighbors, dealing with customers.

Thomas Schelling

The rain it raineth on the just And also on the unjust fella, But chiefly on the just, because The unjust steals the just's umbrella

Teachers are being forced to take a stand against an unjust law. It's this government that intervened and passed an unjust law while we were negotiating within the rules they made.

But those who were unjust changed it for a saying other than that which had been spoken to them, so We sent upon those who were unjust a pestilence from heaven, because they transgressed.

I'm not aware that the government of Haiti is eager or urging Aristide to come back. They've got a democracy to build ... and the future is not the past. Aristide is from the past. We're looking to the future.

When you have unjust laws and unjust actions, people take to the streets.
