"Do not fear the future, do not mourn the past. " Percy Bysshe Shelley When I saw the English litterateur's last name, I immediately associated him with Frankenstein's monster. Yes, I already knew Mary Shelley for being the author of the work that inspired the classic horror movies of the genre. Well! Percy was married to Mary. In addition, he also wrote "Prometheus Unleashed." The English aristocrat and romantic poet expounded in the quote a rational attitude about the assumption of past and future events: to live in the present without regrets of past actions, nor fears for the future. So don't dwell on your past, nor on what will happen to you in the future, work in the now and enjoy life. Portrait of Shelley, by Alfred Clint (1829)
