The second excerpt represents the present or the deciding factor of the moment, and is drawn from Anthem by Ayn Rand: Judge asked:
"Where have you been?"
But we jerked our head away, hid our
face upon our tied hands, and bit our lips.
The lash whistled again. We wondered
who was sprinkling burning coal dust upon
the floor, for we saw drops of red twinkling
on the stones around us.

The third excerpt represents the future or something you must embrace, and is drawn from The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood by Howard Pyle: seated upon the sward beneath that fair, spreading tree.
Then one of them, with his mouth full, called out
to Robin, "Hulloa, where goest thou, little lad, with thy
one-penny bow and thy farthing shafts?"

with his green years.
"Now," quoth he, "my bow and eke mine arrows are as good as shine;
and moreover, I go to the shooting match at Nottingham Town,
which same has been proclaimed by our good Sheriff of Nottinghamshire;
there I will shoot with other stout yeomen, for a prize has been
offered of a fine butt of ale."
