Things ain't what they used to be and probably never was. It's curious the way we get nostalgic for some hoped-for thing that never happened, as if something that never happened were in the past.
Nostalgia for what we have lost is more bearable than nostalgia for what we have never had, for the first involves knowledge and pleasure, the second only ignorance and pain.
BUT
Who wants to live with one foot in hell just for the sake of nostalgia? Our time is forever now!
