Future in the past

The future is written by what has gone before and can only be changed by what we do in the present.

Mankind's Self Deception

The real stupidity of humankind has been its failure to understand that by tacitly condoning that which we know to be wrong for whatever reason, we simply end up perpetuating and complicating matters to the point that the undoing becomes impossibly difficult. Until we understand, that we can never build a civilised world founded on self interest, deception, greed and hypocrisy, our future will continue to hang by a thread.
