Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will Be)
The future's not ours to see
Que Sera, Sera
From Alfred Hitchcock's The Man Who Knew Too Much, 1956
Don't tell me the past is dead
and the future is not ours to see:
without the past
the present cannot be understood
and has no meaning;
and has no meaning;
without the future
the present has no purpose.
Rick Doble
"The past isn't dead. It isn't even past."
William Faulkner, Requiem for a Nun, 1951
Time present and time past
Are both perhaps present in time future,
And time future contained in time past.
T.S. Eliot, Burnt Norton, 1943
Allegory of Time Governed by Prudence
Titian, c.1565, allegorical painting
