All that is human must retrograde if it does not advance.
Very often, as I wander through life, I'll get that old feeling that I've come back from the future, and I'm living in the past. And it's a really horrible feeling.
The idea of creating a quote-unquote 'retro' world isn't all that appealing to me by itself.
Memories are like mulligatawny soup in a cheap restaurant. It is best not to stir them.
They had their faces twisted toward their haunches and found it necessary to walk backward, because they could not see ahead of them. ...And since he wanted so to see ahead, he looks behind and walks a backward path.
There is always something rather absurd about the past.
History is a game played backwards only.
When I look for what I'm going to listen to I go backwards. I'm always going the other way you see. Most people are trying to figure out 'how do I get in the fast lane going that way?'. I'm going in the other direction. I wanna find the oldest thing to do.
The only thing simple about the past is that it's not now.
We are either progressing or retrograding all the while. There is no such thing as remaining stationary in this life.
Suspicions too often block progress.
