Quotes about Carpe Diem

Who loses a day loses life.

While we live, let us live.

I've decided that if I had my life to live over again, I would not only climb more mountains, swim more rivers, and watch more sunsets; I wouldn't only jettison my hot water bottle, raincoat, umbrella, parachute, and raft; I would not only go barefoot earlier in the spring and stay out later in the fall; but I would devote not one more minute to monitoring my spiritual growth. No, not one.

Today is the only day. Yesterday is gone.

Tomorrow is nothing, today is too late; the good lived yesterday.
