My mama always said, "You got to put the past behind you before you can move on."
There’s no need to change the past. Because of the past we are who we are now. Every second, every action from then is linked to us here and now.
— You know, kid, in times like this, my buddy Timon here says, «You got to put your behind in your past».
— No, no, no. It's, 'You got to put your past behind you.' Look, kid, bad things happen, and you can't do anything about it, right?
— Right.
— Wrong! When the world turns its back on you, you turn your back on the world.

Translated from the Russian by Kathleen Cook
The decisions of our past are the architects of our present.

Dialogue between Silko and Jinx
If the experience is not turned into text, it does not even become the past.
J'ai dit à mon cœur, à mon faible cœur:
N'est-ce point assez de tant de tristesse?
Et ne vois-tu pas que changer sans cesse,
C'est à chaque pas trouver la douleur?
Il m'a répondu: Ce n'est point assez,
Ce n'est point assez de tant de tristesse;
Et ne vois-tu pas que changer sans cesse
Nous rend doux et chers les chagrins passés?
