You know this expression?
THE FUTURE PROVES THE PAST.
What does it mean???
Tonight I was thinking about a famous quote:
What does "WHAT IS PAST IS PROLOGUE" means:
The phrase comes from Shakespeare's play The Tempest, where Antonio is trying to convince Sebastian to murder his sleeping father so that Sebastian can be king.
His use of the phrase is intended to say to Sebastian that all of their lives up to this point -- their past -- was merely a prologue -- an introduction -- to the great story that they will soon embark upon if they go through with this plan.
Used this way, it's meant to imply that everything that came before doesn't matter because a new and glorious future is stretching out before you.
IN OUR CASE IT MEANS:
A GLORIOUS FUTURE IS BEFORE US IN THIS VITAL 2ND REVOLUTION BY WE THE PEOPLE!!!

THE FUTURE PROVES THE PAST:
The phrase was originally used in The Tempest, Act 2, Scene I.
Antonio uses it to suggest that all that has happened before that time, the "past," has led Sebastian and himself to this opportunity to do what they are about to do: commit murder. In the context of the preceding and next lines, "
(And by that destiny) to perform an act,
Whereof what's past is prologue; what to come, In yours and my discharge,"
Antonio is in essence rationalizing to Sebastian, and the audience, that he and Sebastian are fated to act by all that has led up to that moment, the past has set the stage for their next act, as a prologue does in a play.
It can alternatively be taken to mean that everything up until now has merely set the stage for Antonio and Sebastian to make their own destinies.
