Karl Pilkington Quotes

I never look forward. I live for today. And if you think about what's going to happen in a year, in two years, then you begin to plan. And plans never come true.

For the future, I don't want to make solid plans, because you never know what will happen, but I know I don't want to be bored. I really try to focus on the present and be ready for every opportunity. I am so happy with my career and personal life. I never thought I would be working in television and movies, so I am very lucky.

I literally have no idea what's to come. I try to just stay in the moment.

I've never been a planner. I didn't know I was going to run for the State House. I didn't know I was going to run for governor. I don't know what's next, and I love not thinking about it because the doors open at a certain time.

There are people who are able to plan their career, their future, but I've never had any talent for that. I just do things and hope for the best. Say yes, take a chance, and sometimes it's terrific and sometimes it's not.

I do not see myself, I never make plans, I never set goals, and I never do that kind of stuff; I don't like to futurize, I barely know what I will do tomorrow, and because there is a working plan here, I've never futurized because life always surprises me with things even better.

Nothing is written in stone. So don't prepare yourself for a long and lucrative career. You might die tomorrow. Your gold holdings might become dust. Just make the music you want to make now and enjoy it.

I live day by day.

The past is a ghost, the future a dream, and all we ever have is now.

Seize the day, and put the least possible trust in tomorrow.

Live life for the moment because everything else is uncertain!

Rash indeed is he who reckons on the morrow, or happily on days beyond it; for tomorrow is not, until today is past.

I live every day, day to day. I will go wherever life takes me. I'm not questioning it.

I always live in the present. Every night, my mother asks me what I want for breakfast the next morning, and I say that I can only tell her that when I wake up the next day.

I have never planned things in life. I believe in living life or doing things to the moment.

I have no expectations. Not in a bad way, but I've learned that you can't plan ahead. I live day by day and see what happens.

You can only have a short sight because things change a lot. You can't plan what the years will bring.

In life, anything can happen, and I do not close the door to anything.

I've always approached my career and my life, you know, one day at a time, as if this was the last day that I'm going, because you never know as an athlete and as a dancer. You never know what can happen today, tomorrow.

I am always living in the now, so I like what fate brings to you. That's always fun for me. To have a process and someone be like, 'How about this?' And you just grab onto that and see where it takes you.

You never think about what life's going to be like five years down the road or 10 - you just go though the day and try to make good decisions. Sometimes you do, sometimes you don't. You just hope this day will be a good day.

The future will take care of itself. My plans have fallen flat. Nothing that I planned has worked for me so far. So I don't plan anymore. I keep short-term plans.

There is nothing like a concrete life plan to weigh you down. Because if you always have one eye on some future goal, you stop paying attention the the job at hand, miss opportunities that might arise, and stay fixedly on one path, even when a better, newer course might have opened up.

You're better off not preparing, because what you prepare will always be wrong.

Every man's life lies within the present; for the past is spent and done with, and the future is uncertain.
