In The Future We Must Live In Now Forever



Mozart: Divertimento in E-flat major



Mozart: Piano Concerto No. 18




. . . yet there is
no avoiding time,
the sea of time,
the sea of memory
and forgetfulness,
the years of promise,
gone and unrecoverable,
of the land almost allowed
to claim its better destiny,
only to be claimjumped
by evildoers known all too well,
and taken instead
and held hostage
to the future
we must live in now forever.

--Thomas Pynchon
