Wizard Rules # 7 :“Life is the future, not the past. The past can teach us, through experience, how to accomplish things in the future, comfort us with cherished memories, and provide the foundation of what has already been accomplished. But only the future holds life. To live in the past is to embrace what is dead. To live life to its fullest, each day must be created anew. As rational, thinking beings, we must use our intellect, not a blind devotion to what has come before, to make rational choices.”

‘The Pillars of Creation’, Chapter 60, page 549 (Kevin’s FAVOURITE !) Taken from Terry Goodkind’s The Sword of a Truth series.
