Ze future

Watching a reality show from an airport. They interviewed some Germans who got delayed going home to Munich. "I don't look to ze future, I don't look to ze past, I live now". I.e. he didn't mind waiting. Two thoughts. First of all, it's nice to get my prejudiced thoughts confirmed, that no German can say the word "the". Also, a German who lives just for today? What an oxymoron ;). But I'll be happy to see anybody who can prove me wrong!
