I've heard it said before that those who don't learn from the past are bound to repeat it, and I just don't know what I think about that. I figure I don't have too much use for it. The past will just weigh on you if you spend too much time remembering it. Wiley Cash
About This Quote

The past is not something that can just be left behind. It will haunt you, having the ability to come back and haunt you at any time. It's best to just try to forget it as much as possible, but if you're ever asked about it, it's best to answer truthfully. This quote is talking about the fact that the past should be taken on as a learning experience, but instead people tend to repeat the mistakes of the past.
