’Mid hopes and fears and passion’s stormy strife
Think, every day that dawns, the last of life:
Thus shall each hour that lengthens nature’s treat,
By coming unexpected, come more sweet.
[Inter spem curamque, timores inter et iras,
Omnem crede diem tibi diluxisse supremum:
Grata superveniet quae non sperabitur hora.]Horace (65-8 BC) Roman poet, satirist, soldier, politician [Quintus Horatius Flaccus]
Epistles [Epistularum, Letters], Book 1, ep. 4 “To Albius Tibullus,” l. 12ff (1,4.12-14) (20 BC) [tr. Howes (1845)]More info about (and translations of) this quote: wist.info/horace/79940/

A quotation from Bill Watterson
CALVIN: “Live for the moment” is my motto. You never know how long you’ve got! You could step into the road tomorrow and — WHAM — you get hit by a cement truck! Then you’ll be sorry you put off your pleasures! That’s why I say “Live for the Moment.” What’s your motto?
HOBBES: “Look down the road.”Bill Watterson (b. 1958) American cartoonist
Calvin and Hobbes (1990-11-21)More info about this quote: wist.info/watterson-bill/78739…

Dirk Gently, No. 2, The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul, ch. 4 [Dirk] (1988)More info about this quote: wist.info/adams-douglas/29662/

Forget the future
Just let it go
If I ever hurt you
I never planned it that way
Until tomorrow live for today-- From "The Crying Game" #Soundtrack (1993)
