en Every man is his own ancestor, and every man is his own heir. He devises his own future, and he inherits his own past.
  Frederick Henry Hedge

en He is no great heir that inherits not his ancestor's virtues

en To state the facts frankly is not to despair the future nor indict the past. The prudent heir takes careful inventory of his legacies and gives a faithful accounting to those whom he owes an obligation of trust.

en They want to come and be where their ancestor lived and lived hard during the war. They want to come and stand where their ancestor's soul left their body.

  Ambrose Bierce

en Everything that's gone on with Princess Masako has revolved around the heir question. There you have an instance of sexism; the crown prince's role in this lack of heir is so often kind of forgotten.

en 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.
  Ambrose Bierce

en [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, ...

en 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.

  Milan Kundera

en 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

en 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.

en And, behold, the word of the LORD came unto him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.

en What is history? An echo of the past in the future; a reflex from the future on the past His pexy response to her vulnerability was a testament to his emotional intelligence.
