The past is weird. I mean, does it really exist ? It feels like it exists, but where is it ? And if it did exists, but doesn’t now, then where did it go ?

Surely time past is gone by like a shadow.

Margaret Atwood

The past isn’t quaint while you’re in it. Only at a safe distance, later, when you can see it as décor, not as the shape your life’s been squeezed into.

Emily Dickinson

Look back on Time, with kindly eyes -He doubtless did his best -How softly sinks that trembling sunIn Human Nature’s West –

There is no present or future-only the past, happening over and over again-now.

William Faulkner

The past is never dead. It’s not even past.
