"With the immanent future, I have the horizon of past which will surround it, and therefore
my actual present as the past of that future. Thus, through the DOUBLE HORIZON of retention and protention, my present may cease to be a factual present quickly carried away and abolished
by the flow of duration, and become a fixed and identifiable point in objective time." (PoP. 69)
