Earl NightingaleThere is not any present moment that is unconnected with some future one. The life of every man is a continued chain of incidents each link of which hangs upon the former.

Evil may at some future period bring forth good, and good may bring forth evil both equally unexpected.

Warren BuffettIf we examine our thoughts we shall find them always occupied with the past and the future.
Blaise PascalA man should conceive of a legitimate purpose in his heart and set out to accomplish it. He should make this purpose the centralizing point of his thoughts. It may take the form of a spiritual ideal or it may be a worldly object according to his nature at the time being, but whichever it is he should steadily focus his thought forces upon the object which he has set before him. He should make this purpose his supreme duty and should devote himself to its attainment not allowing his thoughts to wander away into ephemeral fancies longings and imaginings. This is the royal road to self-control and true concentration of thought. Even if he fails again and again to accomplish his purpose (as he necessarily must until weakness is overcome) the strength of character gained will be the measure of his true success and this will form a new starting point for future power and triumph.
