If Mystery had a Mother, the voice I then heard would be hers:
“Behold, Hayato, my fascination with humanity: the esthetic of their lostness.
Their future rushes at them. They have a single instant, as it flashes by,
to change it into a comprehensible, acceptable, and palatable past.
Instant by instant, tomorrow blinks in their grasp. If they do not seize without holding,
shape without breaking, that continuity of moments, they leave nothing behind.
Their object, all their objects, is to mold and print themselves on those single bits of future that,
in the touching, ages into swiftly vanishing yesterdays.”

"The present time has one advantage
over every other -
It is our own.
Happiness is not something
you postpone for the future:
It is something you design
for the present.
Do not dwell in the past,
do not dream of the future,
concentrate the mind
on the present moment...
else you will die
not having lived at all."
