CARPE DIEM
From a Latin poem by Horace called "Odes"
Don't ask (it's forbidden to know) what end
the gods will grant to me or you, Leuconoe. Don't play with Babylonian
fortune-telling either. It is better to endure whatever will be.
Whether Jupiter has allotted to you many more winters or this final one
which even now wears out the Tyrrhenian sea on the rocks placed opposite
— be wise, strain the wine, and scale back your long hopes
to a short period. While we speak, envious time will have {already} fled
Seize the day, trusting as little as possible in the next.
(Courtesy, WIKIPEDIA)
"Carpe diem. Seize the day, boys. Make your lives extraordinary" - Dead Poets Society - that truly is a good film.
