When you relinquish the desire to control your future you can have more happiness.

I'm convinced there's a small room in the attic of the Foreign Office where future diplomats are taught to stammer.

You cannot fight against the future. Time is on our side.

I've noticed a terrible thing which is I will agree to anything if it's far enough in the future.

Something I've realized lately to my shock is that I am an optimist in that I think humans are almost infinitely capable of self-change and self-modification and that we really can build the future that we want if we're smart about it.

I would like to see a future where artists think that they have a right to contemplate things like global warming.

I'm substantially concerned about the policy directions of the space agency. We have a situation in the U.S. where the White House and Congress are at odds over what the future direction should be. They're sort of playing a game and NASA is the shuttlecock that they're hitting back and forth.

Knowledge about the economy ideas about capitalism and government the future of the world and geopolitics were things I was never really interested in.

The past is not dead it is living in us and will be alive in the future which we are now helping to make.

Fascism the more it considers and observes the future and the development of humanity quite apart from political considerations of the moment believes neither in the possibility nor the utility of perpetual peace.
