| Summary |
“Dum loquimur, fugerit invida Aetas: carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero.” —Horace The full translation of the Roman poet Horace’s Odes is “While we’re talking, envious time is fleeing: pluck the day, put no trust in the future.” It’s been boiled down most famously to one stark piece of advice: “Carpe diem,” or, “Seize the day.” In other words: Life is fleeting, don’t waste the time you have. It’s an easy thing to say, and we’ve all heard it. But how do you actually make sure that you’re living life to its fullest? That’s where Carpe Diem comes in. In this helpful guidebook you will find hundreds of carefully curated and inspirational quotations from a diverse selection of writers and thinkers. Selected by Linda Picone (The Daily Book of Positive Quotations) and organized by chapters such as “Richer and Poorer” and “The Art of Living,” these quotes serve as a daily reminder to never take life for granted. With this book at your side, you never will. |
