“Once upon a time I too thought that the future was the only competent judge of our works and actions. Later on I understood that chasing after the future is the worst conformism of all, a craven flattery of the mighty. For the future is always mightier than the present. It will pass judgement on us, of course. And without any competence.”
― Milan Kundera, The Art of the Novel

“Do not mourn the dead. They know what they are doing.”
