God isn't the son of Memory; He's the son of Immediate Experience. You can't worship a spirit in spirit, unless you do it now. Wallowing in the past may be good literature. As wisdom, it's hopeless.

If you want to live at every moment as it presents itself, you've got to die to every other moment. β¨ Aldous Huxley, Huxley trusts and heirs (2013). The Genius and the Goddess: A Novel, p.12, Harper Collins
