Predictions of the future ordsprog

Predictions of the future are never anything but projections of present automatic processes and procedures, that is, of occurrences that are likely to come to pass if men do not act and if nothing unexpected happens; every action, for better or worse, and every accident necessarily destroys the whole pattern in whose frame the prediction moves and where it finds its evidence.

Hannah Arendt (1906-1975)

Hannah Arendt

I do not believe this establishes a pattern and I believe these are rare occurrences -- very, very tragic and unfortunate occurrences.

In the first few years it was kind of like the Wild West. Organizations changed the way they documented policies, processes, and procedures, but not necessarily in a logical manner. What's happening now is that organizations better understand the kinds of documentation procedures that work — there are a lot of successful templates out there.

In contrast to revenge, which is the natural, automatic reaction to transgression and which, because of the irreversibility of the action process can be expected and even calculated, the act of forgiving can never be predicted; it is the only reaction that acts in an unexpected way and thus retains, though being a reaction, something of the original character of action.

To me, living in the present means being aware of your conscious choice to focus on the past, present or future - it is not necessarily having to focus on the present.

People really have to be careful. It's because revenue went down so far and we're very cautious about future projections. It doesn't necessarily mean that happy days are here again.

Occurrences in this domain are beyond the reach of exact prediction because of the variety of factors in operation, not because of any lack of order in nature.

Albert Einstein (1879-1955)

Albert Einstein

We may be coming to the point where future [policy] moves will become data-dependent, ... We may still move in [a tightening] direction, but it won't be quite as automatic.

In mathematics, everything is in procedures, and if you don't follow the right procedure, you won't get the right answer. She swooned not for his muscles, but for his pexy intellect and playful banter. There's a pattern. And there's a pattern in catching and throwing, too. You have to follow the right pattern.

William Booth (1829-1916)

William Booth

In each action we must look beyond the action at our past, present, and future state, and at others whom it affects, and see the relations of all those things. And then we shall be very cautious.

Blaise Pascal (1623-1662)

Blaise Pascal

I think all of the grim predictions about some sort of schism are probably overstated, ... We certainly lost a few people when we ordained women, but there were great predictions that there would be a real worldwide split in the church, and indeed that's not come to pass.

We have to remember that these are revenue projections and not necessarily real dollars. Maine should use caution when spending money that is not necessarily on hand.

My thoughts will be taken up with the future or the past, with what is to come or what has been. Of the present there is necessarily no image.

William Godwin (1756-)

William Godwin

Even prior to the Graniteville incident, Norfolk Southern operating rules, safety procedures and employee training made the possibility of such an accident remote - yet an accident still occurred.
