Enjoy yourself. It's later than you think.


              At any moment,
 Life can be let go into the unknown.


When your life flashes before your eyes, make sure you've got plenty to watch!

I would I could stand on a busy corner, hat in hand, and beg people to throw me all their wasted hours.  ~Bernard Berenson

To always be intending to live a new life, but never find time to set about it - this is as if a man should put off eating and drinking from one day to another till he be starved and destroyed.  ~Walter Scott

Life is not lost by dying; life is lost minute by minute, day by dragging day, in all the thousand small uncaring ways.  ~Stephen Vincent BenĂ©t

Why always "not yet"?  Do flowers in spring say "not yet"?  ~Norman Dougl

Spend the afternoon.  You can't take it with you.  ~Annie Dillard

Go for it now.  The future is promised to no one.  ~Wayne Dyer

If you woke up breathing, congratulations!  You have another chance.  ~Andrea Boydston

Men talk of killing time, while time quietly kills them.  ~Dion Boucicault

Cowards die many times before their deaths;
The valiant never taste of death but once.
~William Shakespeare
