Both Uses of
prospective
in
Nature, by Emerson
- The lover seeks in marriage his private felicity and perfection, with no prospective end; and nature hides in his happiness her own end, namely, progeny, or the perpetuity of the race.†
*
- Every end is prospective of some other end, which is also temporary; a round and final success nowhere.†
Definition:
concerned with or related to the future
