Present, Oogway

Panda: How is Shifu ever going to turn me into the Dragon Warrior? I mean, I'm not like the five. I've got no claws, no wings, no venom. Even mantis has those thingies. Maybe I should just quit and go back to making noodles.
Oogway,: Quit. Don't quit. Noodles. Don't noodles. You are too concerned with what was and what will be. There's a saying. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called a "present".

- Grand Master Oogway from Kung Fu Panda
