the first of four quartets

Time present and time past
are both perhaps present in time future
and time future contained in time past.
if all tme is eternally present
all time is unredeemable.
what might have been is an abstraction
remaining a perpetual possibility
only in a world of speculation.
what might have been and what has been
point to one end, which is always present.
footfalls echo in the memory
down the passage which we did not take
towards the door we never opened
into the rose-garden.

TS Eliot
Burnt Norton
1935

I like this

It has been observed that, whereas modernism was time-oriented, postmodernism is space-oriented.
