be a cause for the future

"The best way to know any future is to cause one. And that's why, you see, when you start consulting the oracle at Delphi, you've taken a step downhill. You have assigned cause for the future elsewhere...

So, one predicts the future as much as one is cause. The future isn't a pattern laid out to abuse and bully you. The future is a beautiful playground that nobody happens to be combining.

You can talk about virgin territory~ the most virgin territory there is, is the future. You can do anything you want with it."
