It ever is the marked propensity of restless and aspiring minds to look into the stretch of dark futurity. - Joanna Baillie All futurity seems teeming with endless destruction never to be repelled; Desperate remorse swallows the present in a quenchless rage. - William Blake The veil which covers the face of futurity is woven by the hand of mercy. - Edward George Earle Lytton Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton Futurity is the great concern of mankind. - Edmund Burke The earth with its scarred face is the symbol of the past; the air and heaven, of futurity. - Samuel Taylor Coleridge It has been well observed that we should treat futurity as an aged friend from whom we expect a rich legacy. - Charles Caleb Colton We bewail our friends as if there were no better futurity yonder, and bewail ourselves as if there were no better futurity here; for all our passions are born atheists and infidels. - Jean Paul Friedrich Richter (Johann Paul Richter) (used ps. Jean Paul) Futurity is impregnable to mortal ken: no prayer pierces through heaven's adamantine walls. Whether the birds fly right or left, whatever be the aspect of the stars, the book of nature is a maze, dreams are a lie, and every sign a falsehood. - Johann Christoph Friedrich von Schiller
