"When I dwell with you, I do so in the present - I live in the present. Not the past, although much can be remembered and learned by looking back, but only for a visit, not an extended stay. And for sure, I do not dwell in the future you visualize or imagine."

"Mack, do you realize that your imagination of the future, which is almost always dictacted by fear of some kind, rarely if ever, pictures me there with you?" (p. 141-142)
