The future is foretold from the past and the future is only possible because of the past. Without past and future, the present is partial. All time is eternally present and so all time is ours. There is no sense in forgetting and every sense in dreaming. Thus the present is made rich. Jeanette Winterson
About This Quote

The future is foretold from the past when you look back to see how something was achieved. The future is only possible when you look back to see how something was achieved. The present is partial without the past and future. When everything in the present is in the present, there is no sense in forgetting and no sense in dreaming. The past and future are what make our lives rich.
